    Just downloaded the Windows version of vvvP 1.1 and I cannot get it to work properly under
    Vista 64-bit - a dialog pops up without any text or other information
    XP does not recurse into sub-directories and the thumbnail shows two crossed lines
    Win 7 32-bit eventually crashes

    Anyone can comment under which OS this program or which version will run??

    After some more playing with the program, I have finally been able to run 1.1 on my Vista machine without crashing.
    It took me a bit of time to get used to the expected flow of action needed, but it looks like it will be very useful.
    It did complain about several graphics files, so now I will have to try and find out why and if or how these problems can be fixed.
    [Edit]Just realized that these 'crossed lines' appear fro files which are not graphics files - why are they even considered?

    Under Win 7, 1.1 pops up a dialog telling me:
    Unexpected error .... bad allocation"
    After this, the app stays up, but is hung. :(

    Now, if only I was a CMake guy so I can investigate this issue further.

    For whom may encounter again this error (bad allocation), in my case (Windows 10 Pro 64 bit), I solved running the application with admin rights. Hope can help you too!
