Bad paths causing a crash on some Windows boxes?
From Simon Jameson:
It appears the default paths that you assign for the itunes, serato and traktor libraries cause an issue if they don't exist. As I don't have serato or itunes installed it was causing a crash. The vmware windows only has virtual DJ so _for some reason having none of the three paths available is fine but if any one is, and others aren't it fails._
Removing the paths from the registry fixes the issue and 1.15 runs without issue now.
Confirmed in Windows 7 x64. First launch is no problem at all, then I entered the Paths for the iTunes and Traktor libraries (Don't have Serato) and after the second launch it crashes just after a few seconds. Compatibility Settings or running it as administrator did not fix it. After deleting the Serato-Path-Key from the registry it works like a charm. I can provide you with a Windows Error Report of the crash, if you need it. Feel free to contact me by email: mail at randomjo dot net.
Little Addendum: Trying to load a Traktor 2.6.0 collection with more than a few kB seems to crash the program as well, But leaving this one on the default path works well, although it doesn't exist. I have the feeling the Serato path is a bit of a killer here.
@randomJo27 - can you confirm whether this behaviour still exists in KF 1.21? The Windows build process has changed considerably.
