Fixing error 87 when starting additional BardecodeFiler services
When starting any of the 3 additional services in version 2.4.1.1 or version 2.4.1.2 of BardecodeFiler it is possible to get the error message:
“Windows could start the BardecodeFiler Service(1) on Local Computer. Error 87: The parameter is incorrect”
There are 2 solutions:
Either:
Deinstall BardecodeFiler, reboot and then install version 2.4.1.3 or later.
Or:
1. Run regedit
2. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\services\BardecodeFiler Service(1)
3. Change the positions of the double quote characters:
““C:\Program Files\Softek Software\BardecodeFiler\BardecodeFilerService.exe” 1″
to
“C:\Program Files\Softek Software\BardecodeFiler\BardecodeFilerService.exe” “1″
And do the same for the other BardecodeFiler services (2) and (3).
