This occurs because the WinFax Service (wfxsvc.exe) is causing this message. You'll need to disable the service in Vista. However, that will eliminate that error but you'll soon find that you can't send faxes out of VISTA. if you only want to send quick cover pages and designed cover pages, it will work....but only those types of pages. No attachments and no printed pages from outside applications because the printer driver will not install in Vista. Troubleshooting WInFax at http://www.getfaxing.com

Hi,

As far as i know, win fax is not compatible with Vista.

Its better to uninstall the program.

Also if you want to install the software my recommendation is :

After weeks of investigation I found a software that does the same & more functions than the win fax so i downloaded the free version of Active-Fax.

Especially if you have ISDN modem, as I do, this software is far better.

You can download it rom the link below :

http://www.actfax.com/en/download.html

First you try with this key :

The license for one user is free and the key to enter during installation is 10025-49480

To start the installation of ActFax, run the setup program from the download area (file actfax_setup_en.exe).

When running the installation from a CD-ROM, the setup is automatically started when you insert the CD.

To install the trial version of ActFax, enter the license key 00000-00000 in the setup.

The trial version has no limitations and all functions are available (a small demoversion watermark is printed at the end of each fax page in that case then).

And the best of everything is that when you customize the software and you want to keep the settings in case you want to format your drive or install it on another computer, you copy all files of C:\Program Files\ActiveFax to the same location in your new computer and reinstall.

All your settings and faxes are preserved.

Good Luck.

Live, Love, Laugh.

Unfortunately,the question you had asked is persisting issue in Google Chrome and the developers at Google are yet to fix it.They have not provided the workaround. But you can stop this interactive dialog box by following these steps:
1. Open Services.msc by Start->Run->services.msc
2. Double click on the entry 'Interactive Services Detection'
3. Click Stop button(if it is enabled) and change startup type to Disabled.

You can find this raised as issue in Google Code page here

Winfax 10.03 Instalation

Try installing winfax from safe mode. I was having the same problem and this worked for me. However, when you install from safe mode, you will get error messages staing that the printer driver can not be installed. Do not worry about this, as you can install the printer drivers manually. Now, when you do the install, halfway thru, you will need to restart your computer. If you restart and the install does not finish by itself, go to program files, look for the winfax folder, open it and you will see another winfax folder. Open that, and first click the file INSPRINT.exe. This will manually install the print drivers. Second, click WNTSETUP, this will continue the install process.
