#91 ABC 1.4.0..0 Stalls and Times Out - Doesn't Work
I have downloaded and installed 1.4.0.0 four times and keep getting the same results. When I open the app on Win11 PC I get the last abc tune played in the previous version. If I close this and then close the app the close of the abc is not saved. If I try to play the abc the app stalls and times out. If I close the app and re-open it and try opening another abc file and try to play this, the app stalls and times out. Version 1.4.0 is a dud. No error messages. No response at all. Not impressed.

Hi,
Could you tell me what is displayed in the Internal Messages window? Accessible from the menu.
Have you tried the menu to reset EasyABC to default?
There might be a settings that is preventing to work properly.
I cannot reproduce the issue on Windows 10 (I do not have a Windows 11 computer available)
Frederic,
Here is what is in Internal Messages. I don't know what it means.

I'm not sure what you mean by "reset to default." I don't see this option
in the menus. I reset Windows menu to default to no effect.

Hello Dave,
To restore EasyABC to factory settings, go to
Settings/Cold Restart
Also check out my video starting_easyABC_on_win11.mp4
on https://sourceforge.net/projects/easyabc/files/Documentation/
I am interested in any messages you see in the command prompt
window.
It will be a lot easier communicating to you directly.
Send me an email from your personal email account.
