Did you try this one?
(from GG):
Hi folks
I confiused with my pcanywhere . I wanted to connect to a remote Host
with symetric encryption.
but get the error : "CryptoApi is not available object already
exsists"
here is the solution which I found for this problem :
go to your user profile directory , ApplicationData\Microsoft\Crypto
and delete the contents
ie:
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application
Data\Microsoft\Crypto
delete the crypto folder. it will creates as you delete it.
now PcAnyWhere works correctly.!
Regards
Reza Toghraee
