Hi All,
Windev has been crashing once or twice a week - not when in use, it just crashes on its own, and it crashed again last night. I restarted Windev, reopened the project and when I open the window I get an instant error message as attached and Windev closes. A second Windev error message in French flashes briefly, the only word I can make out is 'Filtre'.
Any ideas how I can rescue my window? I have tried importing it into a new project with the same result.
Thanks
Pete |

Pete,
Have you tried all the "standard" stuff like deleting the .CPL folder etc.? |

Hi Darren,
Thanks, yes I've tried deleting the .cpl folder with the same result, but nothing else yet. The other windows open fine, it is just the one I have spent the most time working on that won't!
What other standard things can I try?
Cheers
Pete |

Pete,
Never needed to do it myself, but you can try deleting the .env file as mentioned by Fabrice in some recents posts.
There's also the repair option in the Project menu - have you tried that?
Sometimes changing your hardware config can have strange effects on the dev environment, like when you're working on multiple monitors and you change their config. Might not be the case here, but always worth considering? |

Hi Darren,
Thanks again, I've just tried deleting the .env file and repairing the project, but still the same error. I managed to get a screenshot of the Windev error (attached).
Cheers
Pete

Pete,
Are you working on a virtual machine? |

Hi Darren,
No, Windows 8.1 PC.
It was working fine until I added a listbox to the first window.

Next, try making a copy of the window.
Sorry, just remembered, it's erroring when opening it isn't it? |

Hello Pete
The other file to add to the list of those to delete when trying to fix things is the audit file.
It is called projectname.waudit
I see from the error report that you are using the 64bit version, so I suppose you could always try the 32bit version.
I started using the 64bit version but it was so unreliable I have gone back to the 32bit version - it only crashes 2-3 times a week :rolleyes:
Regards
Al |

| Yes, I was about to comment on the 64bit usage. I too abandoned 64bit for 32bit quite a while ago. In fact I tried it when it was made available but soon found it to be unreliable and haven't tried it since - I've always installed 32bit and never looked back. |

Darren - yes, I can't open the window without a crash. Most of the app is in one window, using planes.
Al - Thanks for your suggestion, I deleted the .waudit file but still get the crash.
I think I will install the 32 bit version and see if that is less flighty, and wait for a reply from PC Soft.
Cheers

Hello Pete
In case it is project related, have you tried just opening WD19 - no project and just drag the window onto the IDE or open it from the file menu > Open
You could also use this method to open the .bkw or .tkw files in the backup
Regards
Al |

Thanks for that suggestion Al, the window does open without the project being open, and I have copied it to a new project, where it opens normally.
Is there anything I need to worry about when installing the 32 bit version?
Thanks again

Hello Pete
There are no gotcha's in the 32bit version, just install as normal. I have both 64bit and 32bit installed in separate folders.
