There are surely many people with this same problem but your blog is the only one I found that suggests a solution.

That seems to have fixed mine, too. I'm working on a solution that was upgraded from VS2005, so I wonder if the .SUO contained something from the older version that VS2010 didn't like.

One addition: when using Delphi XE(2) or higher you can just specify in the project options if the application needs to compile with a custom manifest file, which you can ten place in you're projects folder. Example of my manifest: Nice article….

This worked flawlessly until I needed to develop a 64-bit Virtual Channel. I dutifully upgraded to Delphi XE3 and upgraded my code so that it would compile without error. The problem that I am now having, both with my code and yours, is that when I close the RDP/Terminal Service session, the plugin crashes mstsc.exe. Have you run into this at all? I am currently running RDP version 6.2.9200.16398 which I believe is the latest and greatest version.

I suddenly started having this problem in Xe2. So in order to get around it, I collected my units into a vcl app and loaded with XE. I did my edits in XE and compile in XE2 (FMX). Suddently XE2 started working again. A few hours later it broke again. Loading back up in XE found - IT WAS BROKEN THERE TOO. Not to be outdone, I said right - load in Delphi 2009 - broken there too!!!! AQTime is certainly not installed in Delphi 2009 and Also other people ahve reported the issue coming back after AQTime has been uninstalled Steve,

In the begining of 2012 i faced the same problem of finding examples doing this in Delphi. The only example i found was a russian one. See: http://www.sql.ru/forum/actualthread.aspx?tid=702704. This example transfers files from the server to the client over Virtual Channel and opens the file with the according application. I modified this example for our needs but couldn't get it to work for 64bit clients. So i am very glad to find your example.
