Delphi – D2007: Installed IDE Extensions – now one important component doesn’t work

delphidelphi-2007

On my D2007 installation, I installed the DDevExtension, and also the IDEFixPack from the same site.

Unfortunately, now I have a component, TmxSideBarPro, that won't load into the IDE anymore. Any time I try, I get the following error in the IDE:

EPackageRegistrationException
Registration procedure, Mxtaskpanereg.Register in package c:!_cg2007\Packages\mxTaskPane_D11D.bpl raised exception class EAccessViolation: Access violation at address 20006A04 in module 'rtl100.bpl'. Read of address 9B8825DB.

I have tried uninstalling the extension above, and they report a successful uninstall, but I still get the error above when trying to install the component. The component vendor hasn't helped much, and I'm not sure they're in business anymore at this point. They did ask if I'd installed any special IDE tools, I explained my situation to them, but I never heard back from them anymore.

What can I do here to get this component working again? I'm willing to reinstall D2007, but I've also got D2009 installed, and I've read that you shouldn't install an older version after a new version.

Also, if there's a different forum category this should be in, please let me know.

Is there something loading that mxTaskPane_D11D? TO find out rename mxTaskPane_D11D to mxTaskPane_D11D!.!bpl (extra characters). Now something ELSE will fail to load. Now unregister that.
