jonathanc -> Error when opening software (5/19/2016 2:34:27 PM)
Hello, I have a computer running Windows 7 Pro 64bit and Calendar Creator 12. When trying to open the software, it gives an error at the splash screen that says something along the lines of 'you can't open a database created with an earlier version'. The splash screen and error only last a second, then close. The process for Creator.exe then hangs in memory and has to be killed with Task Manager. The software was working at one point, and it isn't even pointing to a calendar. Other computers have this installed without any issues, just this one computer. What has been tried: -Run as admin -Run in compatibility modes -Install as admin -Revo uninstalling -Contacted support which pointed me here It seems like when opening it is trying to point to some database that doesn't exist (the ones are on the network and other computers see it fine, but even when I have the laptop off the network it gives the same error) and since it is doing this, I cannot get the software to open at all. What can I do to fix this? Thank you

That database may be hidden in a file. See my screen capture for reference. You will need to enable hidden files to get to that location. Don't think Revo and any other uninstaller will pick this one up. Try uninstalling, and also deleting the hidden file folders left behind.

I almost forgot to mention that Networks are not supported by our products as the programs were designed to run on the local computer.

Hello, Another option to try to make sure this has nothing to do with your network, or the way it is setup. Create a local folder under Libraries \| Documents \| Calendar Creator \| 12.1 and Copy all of your .BCC files to this location. From this Local location, double-click one of your more recent files to see if you get an error. I also have CC 12.1 on a Windows 7 x64 system and it runs fine without me having to use any Compatibility settings. Good Luck.

I don't think at this point networks not being supported is an issue if that's the case, since I can't even launch the software post installation without getting the error and it crashing out. I can install it on other computers and it will open just fine, though. The AppData folder was also one of the things that was tried when I was talking to support and it didn't seem to work either. I didn't try to copy the BCC files, so I will give that a shot once I can get back on the machine.

This is beyond an area where I can help, but please review these two past posts in case there's something you haven't tried or would like to try: http://forums.encoreusa.com/fb.asp?m=40601 http://forums.encoreusa.com/fb.asp?m=40536

So I was able to try and run a BCC file directly on the computer itself, and I get an error that says "There was a problem sending the command to the program". Anything else that I can try?
