Here is the solution that keeps getting pointed to, but I can't make any sense of it.
Does it make any sense to anyone else? What exactly is supposed to be in this text file?
----------------------------
"Fear not! There is a fairly simple solution.
The lowly manifest file.
Below is the text of an example manifest file. In fact, it's the manifest file for my laptop - fixing EZdrummer 2.
Grrrrr. That was supposed to be MBP in the title.
EZdrummer64
false
Note the line toward the beginning that says:
"name="EZdrummer64.exe""
That must contain the exact name of the executable file. A few lines below it is another place we need to enter the application name.
To use this file. Open a new, blank text file. Copy and paste the above into the text file and save it to the directory where the offending application lives.
In my case, that directory is:
C:\Program Files\Toontrack\EZdrummer
The file must be named as follows:
Exact original executable name + .manifest.
eg.
EZdrummer64.exe.manifest
As mentioned before, it must reside in the same directory as that exe.
After the file exists and is in the correct location, all you have to do is launch the application normally and windows will take care of the rest.
