Hmm, Arcweb is going to require some more work. No change so far so I'd better read the instructions and see what I'm missing.

I suspect what fixes Arcweb will also fix Webster as both are complaining about there being 'no application loaded to handle this URL'

Sorry for the delay...

Had time to check my !Arcweb today, and now I remember that the only thing it was complaining about was the version of File Manager.

Once the right version was installed, it started to run:

Did you have a look in the readme files ?

So the filter manager version issue:

I get round that by running !PrintWeb first and you end up with both icons in the task bar if you run Arcweb afterwards:

IMG20250228094437.jpg

If you then close Arcweb, both Icons disappear and you can just run Arcweb:

And you can get the local files:

IMG20250228094524.jpg
IMG20250228094524.jpg (302.41 KiB) Viewed 662 times

However this time I tried to connect to my local web server running IIS:

IMG20250228101235.jpg
IMG20250228101235.jpg (228.07 KiB) Viewed 662 times

So I don't know what I did different to last time but it can load web pages from web servers using HTTP. It probably won't like HTTPS but that's not entirely unexpected.

@rubber_jonnie

Copy the attached FilterManager (unzip it on your Mac/PC desktop) into your PreDesk folder in !Uniboot and you should be able to run !Arcweb without launching !PrintWeb.

Thanks I'll give it a go.
