Can not get Windows client to open without crashing....need help!

[buckeyes]

Same issue with me here for windows.  I am so anxious to try this out but like empirical1 I can only point and click when it comes to computers. On  side note, whenever this issue gets solved, could someone link the thread where it tells how to recieve your shares if you held shares via the pts 28th snapshot, that would be appreciated.

maybe you can try the command line version, bitshares_client.exe,  locates on same dir as BitSharesX.exe.
see if it is ok?

Tried that too but it still doesn't work.

What is the nature of the latest crash?

This is probably not the answer your asking for but when you try open it, the splash/main screen appears up for a few seconds then crashes/says it has stopped working.

Wish we were able to reproduce it here... are there any logs in your app data dir?

Sorry not sure what that means.

In my app data folder - BitShares X - Logs - The default log has a whole bunch of stuff written on it when I click.

@ Laow - The BitShare_Client_Exe also does the same thing when I click, starts doing it thing for a few seconds then disappears.

Are only a few people having this problem on windows? Hopefully someone better with computers can communicate the problem, I can literally only point & click when it comes to computers...

(Edit: the other logs are empty except p2p log which says '20140724T155051.931966       th_a                 open ] loading pending trx...         chain_database.cpp:1454' on the text file.)

This may be fixed in this release:

Binaries / GUI will probably be released after feedback from the delegates.

guess what...just downloaded the 2.2  version.....and........still crashed.....groan

Yeah me too, that was disappointing.

The first time it was saying the problem name was 'BEX' now it's saying APPCRASH.

Same here on my home computer. Works fine on a VPS though.

hopefully they implement this fix into the client soon...it's quite annoying not being able to access one's own funds (especially after months and months of waiting)
