Haven't used this app before. But I went to install it and it seemed to install without an issue. But when I went to run the app, the app wouldn't open. So I went into Event Viewer and there is an addition to "Applications and Services Log" called "PrivateWin 10". There are several entries, of what I can now gather are from me trying to start it. Here are the first 4 logs starting from the bottom (I would assume all of the others are the same. Due to me attempting to start the app a few times)

  1. (From bottom): Information: PrivateWin10 Process Started, Mode Normal.
  2. (From Bottom): Information: PrivateWin10 Process Started, Mode Service.
  3. (From Bottom): Information: priv10 Service starting
  4. (From Bottom): Error: Exception in RemoteExec: Pipe Broke!
  5. Full Error details in "Details" from number 4:

Hello. So I did some testing. What I had enabled when I was trying to run this was "Force Randomization for images (Mandatory ASLR)" in the Exploit Protection > Systems Settings of Windows Security. I also noticed another app wouldn't launch either. So I went and turned off Mandatory ASLR, rebooted my computer, then tried launching Private Win10 and it opened. The other program that wasn't opening before also opened when I launched it. My issue may be the same as this one https://github.com/DavidXanatos/priv10/issues/20
