XYplorer Beta Club

In the last week or so, every time I close the translation tool after editing and saving, an error alert pops up (see below) and XY immediately crashes. The message that follows is the typical Windows' "XYplorer has stopped working..." with the expected option "Close the program".
On the other hand, closing the Translation Tool with no change or save, it doesn't create any problem.

Can't repro here, but I'm using Win 8.1 and not 7 like you. This could be the cause.

Which version of XY is that?

No repro here too, Win7 and the newest 14.40.0305 version. (Before also no problems) with the translation tool.

The most recent: I just tried 14.40.0305 with the same result...
So can be something on my end? If that's the case, I'm sorry I bothered you because really is not a big deal: even if XY crashes, the changes in the .lng file are saved nonetheless.

Further digging: with ::fresh; does happen the same as soon as I try to load another language file (mine or someone else's). So it's not just the translation tool...
Now, with 14.40.0305 trial version, from a different folder completely new and empty, I see the same error alert loading a local file .lng - while there is a new message (but same error) downloading the language online at startup. This is the new message:

Ok, I made other attempts with older versions:
14.20 ---> can load translation 8.47 8.48 8.49 and 8.50 with no problem at all, save changes with no error.
14.30 ---> can load translation 8.50 and 8.51 with no problem and save with no error.
14.40 ---> can't load any language file and pops error at every save, as said before.

Mystery! Cannot repro.

Maybe something wrong with the lng file itself?

I checked that with the latest online version of Italian but no luck.

Right, it looks like a vb error anyways...

Again, this may be totally unrelated...I'm not knowledgeable on VB in any way shape or form, but I noticed in the last couple of days that a small VB script which does a timed message I use in a couple of scripts, obtained from Stefan at here http://www.xyplorer.com/xyfc/viewtopic. ... age#p71990 has stopped working. I'm getting a VB error message. Anyone else having a similar issue with a VB script run from XY? It's a syntax error. See pic.

Finalized report: the value of $out becomes invalid during processing due to v that v. The vbs code is alright.

There's a bug in the new replace().
Apparently if the 'start' param is set, everything before that position is removed from string.

I should mention I'm still on v14.40.304.

Confirmed, good find!

Could you please generate and post this error message again? I tried to add some info that might help me understand what's going on.

Tested with latest beta.
1) Downloading language file at startup, still gives error (long version), XY doesn't crash and ultimately language is applied.
2) If I switch between languages (any local file, not just Italian) XY crashes with the same old error warning (short version)
3) When I save a language file and close the Translation Tool, I see the same outcome as before: error alert and crash.

Don't know if this helps, but in Events Viewer the error is recorded: in most of XY crashes the faulting module was C:\windows\SysWOW64\ntdll.dll - but this last time is: [/size]
