Hi I am having trouble with your serialfeeder on my Surface Pro 2 Complete new install of windows 10 pro and the main exe file vjoyserialfeeder.exe wont run at all, no errors just wont open. How ever it works fine on my desktop pc with windows 10 pro. Tried everything I can think of firewall, virus scan disable, compatibility troubleshoot, admin and nothing. Am I missing some core Microsoft components possibly?

Any insight would be greatly appreciated? Thankyou

Hi, this is strange. Please replace the exe with this one https://www.dropbox.com/s/86vprx14zspbqrr/vJoySerialFeeder.exe?dl=0

I have put some more error handlers so hopefully some meaningful error message could be displayed.

I have it working now re-installed COM port drivers :) thank you

Ok, so it seems that there are no COM ports detected and this breaks the UI. Obviously I have never tested the program on a machine with no COM ports.

Glad it worked out, I'll put some checks in the code to make sure the program does not crash if there are no COM ports available.

Thanks for your report!
