'''Problem'''

:The notes.ini is not getting patched automatically by the setup.

'''Solution'''

:You may need to path the notes.ini by yourself. You can find the regarding information in the documentation that comes with the Lotus Notes scheme provided by regify.
:The regify setup assistant try's to patch the notes.ini by himself. Upon this, he needs to locate your notes.ini file. To find this file, the regify setup assistant searches the following registry keys for a valid path. Inside of this path, the program searches for a valid notes.ini file:
:* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Lotus\Notes\Path
:* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Lotus\Notes\DataPath
:* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Lotus\Notes\8.0\Path
:* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Lotus\Notes\8.0\DataPath

:If no notes.ini is found in one of the places located using the registry keys above, the setup assistant try's to use the %NOTESDATA% environment variable of windows.

:If none of the pathes will contain a valid notes.ini, the regify setup assistant is not able to successfully patch the notes.ini. In this case, you need to patch the file by yourself.

'''Problem'''

:I successfully installed the provided Lotus Notes template, but no regify buttons appear?

'''Solution'''

:The template is designed in that way, that the regify buttons will only appear, if the notes.ini is successfully patched by the regify client setup. Remember that you need to install the regify client, in order to be able to use regify with Lotus Notes.

'''Problem'''

:I have a german language system, but the regify buttons appear in english?

'''Solution'''

:Regularly the regify functions appear in the language employed by Lotus Notes after the first use of regify and re-start of the client.
