I am on XP and have updated xyplorer. It comes up with black screens!

How do I restore my configuration?!

Thanks

Eric

1) Do not save the configuration.
2) Send me the (pre-upgrading) INI file by mail.

Which version were you upgrading from?

I tried to run it and it came up as trial mode (no idea why!). I reinstalled it and got the same thing. So I entered the registration details and it came up with the black screens.\

I changed some of the options, and closed it. The black screens were back the next time I ran it.

Also, it is not running in the tray right now. Perhaps I need to reboot for that?

Hm, I don't see what could have happened. :|

If you still see black, goto configuration / colors & styles and adjust the colors.

I got it.

I asked it to load a configuration. Said there was basically a path error and should it use the path it knew. I said sure and I got the program dir. Then I went in and loaded a previous config. Looks fine now.

No idea what happened here.
