Option 1

When logged in as an Administrator click Yes to the message to allow Schedule-it to make the necessary registry changes...

Here are the 5 changes our software will try to make if you allow it by pressing Yes...

SetValue("sPositiveSign", "")
SetValue("sDecimal", ".")
SetValue("sThousand", ",")
SetValue("sMonDecimalSep", ".")
SetValue("sMonThousandSep", ",")

Without these changes our software will not work on that PC.

Option 2

While it is possible to directly edit the value for the problem key, the preferred method is to change the Regional Settings to a different Region/Language and then reset it to the desired setting:

1. Open the Regional and Language Options applet from the Control Panel.
2. Note the Current Format.
3. Change the Current Format to English (Australian)
4. Click Apply.
5. Change the Current Format to the noted format, eg, English (American).
6. Click Apply and then click OK.

This action resets every value under the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\International registry key.

Option 3

You can also try the make the change manually for one of the most common causes...

Run the registry editor...
Go to the registry and edit the "Value data" for the following registry "Edit String":
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\International\sPositiveSign
Double click "sPositiveSign" and add a value such as "a" then click OK.
