Program Crashes

Wednesday, May 4, 2005 by titan | Discussion: IconPackager

Hi there,having a problem with I.P.
Since the latest update I can open the program and about 5 seconds later it just closes by itself. It isn't performing an illegal op. its just like you hit the close button.
Any Ideas,Suggestions? Thanks

Be a little quicker in picking one?


Sorry. I'm bored.

Since I've noticed throughout the threads some people get different ver/builds on updates, which version of IP?

Have you tried a reinstall of it?
or restore to previous (get rid of newest) and re-update?

You may want to roll back and install the 2.5 version until the kinks are worked out.

I have not tried the beta, as I am waiting for the official release of 3, but after reading in a couple other posts - it seems the new version still needs some fine tuning.

How can I reinstall the old one?? I'll never install another beta!!!I uninstalled the old one thinking it would help...I lost all my themes even though I didn't put a check in that box!!

bkpeck,

Since you are able to install the beta versions, I assume you are using Stardock Central to install the programs.

Restore Icons to default > start Stardock Central > uninstall the program (if it is not already) > deselect the "Show pre-release version" option on the bottom of the window, this should drop the beta version and show version 2.50.087 (or similar) in the Object Desktop category.

If you have created an archive - go to "File > Restore archive.." and delete any IconPackager archive that has the beta version in it.

Reinstall IconPackager > reboot machine > download the packages you want > when you are satisfied with the content you have installed in the IconPackager sub-directory - run Stardock Central again > right-click IconPackager in the list > select "Archive>Archive application (including all skins)".

The archives are stored in the Stardock Central folder in a folder called "BACKUP". You can burn this folder to disc to save your content (this folder is where SDC looks to find and restore archives).

I hope this helps.
