PROBLEM
When attempting to launch Classic Remote Control or Live Connect in Chrome, nothing occurs and you are met with a prompt suggesting to download Live Connect when it is already installed.
CAUSE
Chrome utilizes protocol handlers to manage URI schemes. When a new application such as Live Connect is installed, Chrome would ask whether you'd like to use Live Connect as the default application for the protocol (kaseyaliveconnect://). When this prompt is ignored or canceled, the browser will no longer know what application to use at the time of the request.
RESOLUTION
- Navigate to %localappdata%\Google\Chrome\User Data.
- Search for Local State and edit with Notepad.
- Find "kaseyaliveconnect" and you'll see
"kaseyaliveconnect":true
-- delete this line. - Save the file.
- Restart Chrome.
- Type
kaseyaliveconnect:\\
in the browser.
If a pop up indicates an attempt to launch Live Connect but crashes, we know that the URI is now properly registered. - Launch Live Connect via the VSA to confirm.
