Crashing

Post by Inaka01 »

Since the last Windows 10 update Picture Window Pro 8 is crashing. It seems to happen most when I try to use the brightness curve or make a new mask. At the moment the program is pretty much unusable.

I always install the latest Windows updates here and have not seen this problem. Sloppy Windows updates from Microsoft have lately been causing a lot of problems on certain PCs.

Anyone else having this problem?

Have you tried uninstalling PWP 8 and downloading and installing the latest version? It sounds like possibly part of the program has gotten corrupted or that your last download may have had errors. Other possibilities are display driver problems or some other change you recently made to your computer.

Does the problem only happen with large files? Does is always crash at the same time when repeating the same operation?
