AlaskanGrizzly Posted March 9, 2016 Author Share Posted March 9, 2016 Sorry AlaskanGrizzly, This one think it's better... Thanks. A few more questions if you have the time: Does this happen on every .pdf file you try to import or just one? Are there any special characters in the .pdf name or the path name? And I am assuming your system language is Portuguese, correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tangofoxtrot Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Hi Grizzley, I meant to get back to you sooner, but ... Anyway, I sort of solved my problem with the Win 10 crash on load. Came across a youtube piece by Bunyap Sims on your app, and somewhere in his presentation he mentioned trying running as admistrator if strange things were happening. Doing that apparently fixed my problem. However, there was some strangeness in doing this. To run the app, I right clicked on the .exe and selected "run as administrator". That worked. Later I just double clicked the exe file rather than specifying "run as admin" and it also ran fine. I'm not sure why that is. Either run as admin is modal, and I was still in it, or the app was somehow tagged to be run with admin permissions or ??? I have not been on that machine since, and since the various kneeboard builder launches were in the same session, I'd like to try the simple double click (not in admin mode), and see what happens. The app ran fine on my other win10 system; that was a head scratcher. However, that machine was a hand-me-down from my son, and after I received it, I continued to run under his account (which probably had admin permissions). So, in my case, it boils down to "run the app as admin". Why this is so is above my pay grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyclone MkIII Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Hi AlaskanGrizzly, I have exactly the same problem as MROK73. W10 64 bits. My system language is French. Seams that changing it to English solved it for MROK73 so I'll try tomorrow night. But in case it's the solution would it be possible to have it system language independent? Anyway, the rest works great and thanks for the great work so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlaskanGrizzly Posted April 9, 2016 Author Share Posted April 9, 2016 Nope, switching to English didn't help. Any idea? I am not sure why it is language dependent for some, but not for others. Some how the file paths get messed up. I'll keep looking into it and try to teach myself a bit about localization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlaskanGrizzly Posted May 19, 2016 Author Share Posted May 19, 2016 Any idea what's happened with it? Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk It is returning a "file not found" error, but I am trying to determine which file. This can also occur if you did not extract the zip file to a non-protected folder or drive before running Kneeboard Builder. You can also try running it as an administrator and see if that helps. Sorry for the late reply too. I got caught up in a very long work schedule and forgot about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
