Visionaire crashing

    Hi,

    Windows did an update over the weekend, and since then Visionaire keeps crashing whenever I try to load a game.

    If I reinstall the application then I can open a game file, but as soon as I have closed it again, I can't re-open it (it's the same with all of my previous game files too).

    I have sent the crash dump, but wanted to make you aware of the issue as it seems to be pretty persistent.

    Thanks
    Tom

    You seem to be starting an old version. Since the change to 64bit it can happen that 2 versions are on the computer, maybe you started the wrong one. The right should have written 5.1.3 on start page.

    Hi Simon,

    I re downloaded and installed it today, but I wonder if the shortcut on my taskbar is pointing to the wrong installation. That would explain why it works from the "launch" after installation but not on subsequent loads.

    Thanks

    Hi Simon,

    To confirm, this has worked perfectly now.

    The shortcut on my desktop was linking to an older version of viseditor.exe within the "Program Files (x86)" folder, as opposed to the "Program Files" folder where the updated version of the application is.

    Cheers
    Tom
