Crash at startup #30427
Comments
From the event viewer:

This crash happens with 0.76.0 and 0.76.1 and 0.76.2 and with all previous builds released since October 2023 and that I tested. Most often, the Settings window loads, is black for a few seconds and then crashes without user input. Sometimes, the settings window is visible and navigable for a few seconds, then crashes. (Edit: corrected version numbers) |
Same. Can't open the settings UI. Some functions are running in the background, however, but not all. Awake is running but not mouse without borders. I hope this helps. |
We just tested with Powertoys 0.77.0 and the same thing happens as reported above. The app seems to install well. But when I try to start Powertoys, it still crashes. At times, I am able interact briefly with the settings window, but then it spontaneously crashes again. Resizing or moving the Powertoys window seems to provoke a crash. Could you please address this issue? |
To clarify, it does not seem like a complete crash, as the tray icon and I think some of its services continue running. But the Settings is inaccessible, trying to launch it brings up a blank black window wich crashes. Many other bug reports in the recent past seem to concern a similar or the same experience. |
Even in the latest release v0.78.0, the same issue persists. 😞 |
