Configuring Data Execution Prevention (DEP)

This topic applies only when upgrading from IMPAX 5.2 server or installing a new server.
Data Execution Prevention (DEP) is on by default for all programs. DEP is designed to help prevent
damage from viruses and other security threats by marking some memory locations "non-executable"
so that malicious code cannot be executed from memory locations that only Windows and other
programs should use. This increased security, however, can cause problems with some programs that
require this memory space, including IMPAX. If DEP remains on, you may encounter problems with
Curator, ddo_store, or CD burns, among other features.
Note:
To successfully configure DEP, the directory C:\mvf\bin must first exist. Also, not every executable
listed in step 6 that follows may appear in the directory.
To configure DEP
1. Right-click My Computer and select Properties.
2. Switch to the Advanced tab.
3. Under Performance, click Settings.
4. Switch to the Data Execution Prevention tab.
5. In the Performance Options dialog, select Turn on DEP for all programs and services except
those I select.
6. For each IMPAX executable in the list that follows, click Add, navigate to C:\mvf\bin, select the
executable, and click Open:
