Crashes when Opening #3

Hey there.

I'm running windows 10 with bookshelf v 6.7.0(16).

When I open bookshelf after following the readme, it crashes instantly. Did the new updates by chance break this method?

You probably didn't install the redistributable or rename the original DLL. In any case, it's a moot point as this version of Bookshelf validates the digital signature of the DLL, and quits if it can't be validated.

@GMMan I made sure to install the redistributable. I also renamed the original dll with an "_" before the name. I assume this dll calls out to that one once the saving process is complete? Anyhow as soon as I open bookshelf it still crashes.

Perhaps there's a way to downgrade bookshelf to prevent the dll from validating and quitting the application?

You probably didn't rename the original file correctly. It's supposed to be named "_pxcvw.dll". You can probably find the previous version of Bookshelf on Internet Archive.
