The information in this article applies to:
Product: ToolBook
Component: Native, Runtime
Product version(s): Instructor 9.0
PROBLEM
When you launch a TBK file in the Runtime version of ToolBook on Windows Vista from a network drive, you may get the following Security Warning:
Open File - Security Warning
The publisher could not be verified. Are you sure you want to
run this software?
Name: \\NetworkPath\runtime\tb90run.exe
Publisher: Unknown Publisher
Type: Application
From: \\NetworkPath\
DETAILS
At the moment, this behavior is normal on Vista. Vista displays a dialog or a security warming anytime an unsigned application is launched.
The Authoring Version of ToolBook is a signed application and will not trigger this warning when opening ToolBook.
However because ToolBook allows you to write OpenScript, and OpenScript is a very powerful programming language allowing you to do things to Vista which Vista may very well find non-secure, it is not possible for SumTotal to sign the runtime engine of ToolBook.

| OPENSCRIPT NOTICE The OpenScript programming examples found in many articles may need modification in order to work in ToolBook 9.0 or higher, particularly if the article was written for an older version of ToolBook. To learn more, click here. |
