Hi Bill, Thanks for the quick response. I cannot see any related messages in the Windows event logs. When I type "http://google.co.uk" into the Windows start menu/page and hit ENTER Google opens in Chrome browser as expected. Are there any debug switches I can set?

I am using Windows 10 64 bit and an IC-7300. > Hi Richard, I had seen your post on the wsjtgroup Yahoo group, I have little to offer as it works for me and no other reports of network initiated from WSJT-X causing what you report. Clearly we have an issue with whatever crash is happening with no error message being reported. Is there anything in the Windows Event Log related to the failures? The first thing I would check is what happens if you type a URL like "http://google.co.uk" into the Windows start menu/page and hit ENTER, does the correct browser get launched or open a tab with the results? 73 Bill G4WJS. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ wsjt-devel mailing list wsj...@li... https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wsjt-devel |
