The UI doesn't want to start

Hey, the UI doesn't want to start. It pops up with an error.

[RMFDEMON]

Here's a copy of the log file:

This is part of a typo in the code. Do you know how to build the project? If so, please grab the latest version and build. If not, let us know.

[RMFDEMON]

I don't, sorry.

[RMFDEMON]

Hey, did you guys fix the typo in the code?

[RMFDEMON]

And what language is it in, because if it's in java I can help.

[darth62969]

Hey Jonathan, when are you guys gonna publish?

[darth62969]

the worst answer... when we get around to it.

when i get back to my desktop i can do a release. really @pfckrutonium would need to do it but he lost the digital signature, so right now it doesn't really matter who does it.

still procrastinating....

Any luck on getting a release out to fix this?

Basically preventing use of the GUI on every machine I try it on :cry:

[darth62969]

fix the registry value, it is trying to pop up an error telling you to fix that. i forget where exactly that is however... but it is the one that disables the logon background.

[gabrielfsousa]

i have this problem too :(

[jj-obrien]

@darth62969 thanks for the hint!

This error occurs if you have edited the registry to remove the logon background Image entirely. If the following key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System Has a 32-bit DWORD named DisableLogonBackgroundImage with value of 1 then removing that DWORD resolves the problem.

I guess a prompt to remove this value for you would be a nice fix for this issue in the app.

So I have made a new release, please try v 1.2.1
