WIA Logging wialog

[Willi Behrens]

Hey group

is there a clean way to disable the WIA logging ?!?!
my C:/wialog.txt grows and grows and grows ..

I did not find "wialog" in registry .. scanned all C:/windows files
found it only in vizmicro.dll and sti.dll ..
searched registry and web for vizmicro & stl ..
found scanner related entry at hklm\software\system\controlset\class\<GUID>
but no tags seem to be logging related

no idea what to do

can this logging really be an "always on" feature ?

w.b.

You might try setting the WIA service to Manual instead of Automatic, if you
need WIA to run at all.

Interesting, that service is started on my system but that file is not
present.

you know that file may be of attribute "hidden" ?

Hey, would you mind looking inside services to tell us the start
command line of that service ?

mine is: C:\WINDOWS\System32\svchost.exe -k imgsvc

@wesley
even if manual mode, if scanner or digicam is used -> file grows again

Check your settings here: Start/Run/Regedit

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\stisvc]
"Start"=dword:00000003

THANX that did it - now there is silence inside wialog.txt !!!

funny that even after years one can have a complete miss with google

my mistake was to browse all the time for "DISABLE" LOGGING.. ha

thx !


@Rock
obviously your manufacturer decided to deliver software with trace flags set to '0'
