Can't reopen the app on windows

[lirena00]

So this issues has been raised previously too ... I don't know it's the same for me it crashes immediately after some time I am using v0.3.0

[G-Ray]

Could you please try opening the app from a terminal?

You might encounter a crash error. Be careful not to copy your QR code/synchronization link, as it should remain private 🫣

It might be due to a crash fixed in v0.3.1. Could you try it and see if the crash still happens ?

[lirena00]

so first of all sorry for late response second yes it does crash in v0.3.1 third I am not sure if I did the right thing while opening it in terminal I used npm run desktop and it said no package.json file so I added that too then I ran the same command again so this was the output of that

> pikatorrent-monorepo@0.0.0 desktop
> npm -w @pikatorrent/desktop start

npm ERR! No workspaces found:

Don't worry about the delay, just contribute when you can. :hugs: For now, can you simply drag and drop the PikaTorrent executable into a Windows terminal?

this is what it showed hmmmmm

this is what it showed hmmmmm

These logs seems ok. Do your see your qrcode/private link ? (Do not paste it here, it should remain secret). No crash logs after that qrcode ?

[lirena00]

nah it shows Do not share your unique link or QR code with anyone. this much only and above it there is a link

Can you check if a pikatorrent process is still running when the crash happens ? Also, you can try to backup and delete the config folder: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\pikatorrent

Thanks to @mymyoux, I was able to reproduce a crash with a magnet containing an http tracker. I guess it' s the same issue as this one. The fix will be included in the next release ⬆️

[G-Ray]

v0.5.3 is released :tada:

@LiReNa00 & @mymyoux, could you please try it and confirm the app does not crash anymore ?

[G-Ray]

I consider this to be fixed, feel free to reopen if the issue still occurs
