  I installed the cumulative patch and the SQL Data Compare launch button is still grayed out. I tried an existing project and creating a new project.
  
  Thanks.

  Any news about this annoying bug? We have it at several computers, Sql Compare Professional version 9.0.0.79. It sometimes works from Sql Data Compare to Sql Compare, but the other way never.

  I'm sure the patch suggested above prevents the problem from happening in the future, but I'm not sure if it actually fixes it. The problem was a duplicate registry key left behind by a previous version of SQL/Data Compare. Try deleting the eldest subkey in
  
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Red Gate\SQLToolsInstalledProducts\SQL Data Compare
  
  For instance, if you do not have v8 installed, delete the "8.0" subkey.
