Windows 7 Problems with FrontPage 2003 in Windows 7

[Relic]

I'm having issues using MS FrontPage in Windows 7 Retail Home Premium edition. I cannot login/access any of the websites I have authored. Basically, it won't accept my login credentials for any of my sites.

Has anyone else had this problem or know a work-around? Thanks in advance.

It seems like you're encountering an issue with Microsoft FrontPage on Windows 7 Home Premium where you are unable to login or access websites that you have authored. Here are a few suggestions and workarounds that might help resolve your problem: 1. Compatibility Mode: Try running FrontPage in compatibility mode. Right-click on the FrontPage shortcut or executable, go to Properties, then the Compatibility tab, and choose to run in compatibility mode for an earlier version of Windows. 2. Run as Administrator: Running FrontPage with elevated privileges might help. Right-click on the FrontPage shortcut and select "Run as Administrator" to see if it allows you to access the websites. 3. Check Firewall and Antivirus Settings: Your firewall or antivirus software might be blocking the login process. Ensure that FrontPage and its related processes are allowed through your firewall and antivirus software. 4. Clear Cache and Cookies: Clearing the cache and cookies in your browser can sometimes resolve login issues. FrontPage uses Internet Explorer for some of its functions, so clearing IE's cache could also help. 5. Update FrontPage: If possible, make sure you are using the latest version of FrontPage. Updates often include bug fixes and compatibility improvements. 6. Repair FrontPage Installation: If none of the above solutions work, try repairing the FrontPage installation. Go to Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features, find Microsoft FrontPage in the list, and select "Repair." 7. Alternative FTP Clients: Consider using alternative FTP clients like FileZilla or WinSCP to upload files to your websites if FrontPage continues to have login issues. 8. Check Website Configurations: Double-check your website configurations and login credentials to ensure they are correct. Sometimes, the issue might not be with FrontPage itself but with the website settings. These steps should help you troubleshoot and possibly resolve the login issues you are facing with Microsoft FrontPage on Windows 7 Home Premium.
