Jon,

Installed the newest beta on Windows XP SP3. It crashes rapidly when I run it. I've zipped a log file; don't know if I can get it to run long enough to get more info, but I can try.

Is there an ini file I can modify?

Regards,
-Robert

Increased the debug logging to highest detail. It stayed up a few minutes. Looks like the crash happened in some hit testing.

Here is the log running up to the crash.

Hi, I am also getting this problem, I'm not 100% certain but it appears like the application isn't crashing but the taskbar instances are being recycled repeatedly. I have attached a debug log of opening the app, letting it "crash" a few times and closing the app.

It seems that the following is repeated in the log each the time the taskbar closes

This didn't happen with 4.0.0, it started when I updated to beta 2 (I think it was beta 2)

Okay, folks, it's Tuesday and I posted a crash bug on Friday... Guess we're on vacation?

DF is unusable in beta 3. I'm reverting to the last non-beta. Can't guarantee that I can help out, now. Good luck with squashing the bug. I'll load a beta after you've addressed it.

UPDATE: Running 4.0.0

Sorry for the late reply guys, we've been working as much as we can on these crashing issues. Thanks for the logs, it looks like you both have the same issue. I think we've fixed up both issues for the upcoming Beta 4. Once it's released later this week, can you provide feedback on whether the issue has been fixed (or at least improved)? Thanks!
