"Old problem" still unsolved. Some new info, and some screenshots included this time.
I just tried the latest update, ThumbsPlus 9 build 3935, hoping to get TP back to working order. TP worked on Windows 7. Worked on Windows 8. But it is no longer is working on Windows 8.1.
Latest versions of TP will not allow me to change compatibility settings.
TP does not run. It installs, but does not run. I install with default settings every time, but always get when I try to run it:
Nothing I do fixes the problem:
[*] Creating a new database
[*] Open an existing database
[*] Uninstalling, reinstalling
[*] Deleting Thumbs.tpdb8
[/list]
I tried running older versions: version 7 sp2 (Standard), version 8 (Standard). Same error.
I am logging on to Windows with an account that has administrator rights.
I even paid for an upgrade to Pro (yes, I now know, you get the same download file - I was getting desperate to get this to work).
