    I have installed XML copy editor on a USB key.
    It runs fine until I press F5 to validate.
    It then shows 3x the standard MS screen saying: "validate.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for the inconvenience."

    Is there a solution for this problem?

      Thanks for alerting me to this. I'll try to repeat the error and get back to you asap.

      May I ask: did you install to the memory pen, or did you copy the XML Copy Editor folder after installing to C:\Program Files (or another harddisk location)?

      Sorry, just realised you mentioned that you installed to the USB key. Will get back to you asap.

      Yes, glad you spotted this error. It seems to trip over all invalid files at the moment. (It's ok if the file is valid or if no XML Schema is attached.)

      My best guess (until I get a chance to look at the source) is that this is a version problem – this worked on my system before (with MSXML 4.0) and it's stopped working after updating MSXML for another application.

      The long-term solution will be using Xerces-C rather than MSXML for XML Schema validation. The Linux port already does this, but I'm still looking for a Xerces build for a GNU compiler that won't crash on Windows.

      I'm hoping to fix this for 1.0.9 (due out before the end of the week).

      Sorry, this error was my fault entirely. It will be fixed from version 1.0.9.
