I tried v5.42 and had the same issue so I downloaded v5.40 and the issue was resolved. Thanks again for your help!

Ahh, good 'ole FileHippo. I was searching for a previous versions download source. Thanks again mta. Take care mate.

Hi mta Thanks very much for the info.

I am having exactly the same issue; however, I have Windows 10.

Off topic, but interesting - Operating System market share as of May 2017: https://www.netmarketshare.com/operating-system-market-share.aspx?qprid=10&qpcustomd=0 Windows 7 makes up say 50% of the market and Windows 7 comes with .NET Framework 3.5 installed (assuming 7 with SP 2). .NET 3.5 can run on 85% of Windows without additional Framework install (10, 8.1, 8 & 7). Looks like I should have targeted 3.5 instead of 4.0 It's too bad that .NET Framework is such a major hassle for XP users. The problem I have is that in 2008 when I asked programmers what programmin

I do believe you're right Willy2. A long time ago I did install .NET Framework on my XP system and if my memory serves me right, it did take a long time.

On advice from some programmers I was informed that it's best to not develop in .NET framework earlier than 4.0 in order to take advantage of better coding. Andavari, I agree that some people will skip my program if they need to download .NET Framework 4 but hopefully this will not stop too ma

@ hazelnut, thank you so much for the link, it clarified quite a few things

Hi hazelnut. This is a little bit off topic, but here goes: I'm developing my program using .NET Framework 4.0. I gather you have Windows 7, would you know if most Windows 7 users would have .NET Framework 4 or higher due to updates from Microsoft?

Thanks!

Thank you for drawing our attention to this. Like you, I also uninstalled Avira Browser Safety in favour of uBlock Origin.

I agree!!!!!!!

"uBlock Origin" was recommended to me on another forum and I installed it a few days ago in my Chrome browser. Seems really good.
