Universal-XML-Scraper Has Stopped Working

[2xPutt]

Any time I start the program, it immediately crashes and states it has stopped working. I have never even gotten the program to even launch once as it does this EVERY time.

I also notice this pops up every time I try to open the program and then disappears every time it crashes:

I remember the very first time I 'installed it' and was running it, it asked me a question that I have never seen since and if I recall correctly, it said something about ffaloader or viewer or something of that nature.

Running on Vista 64bit, Any help?

ouch... Never eard about FFA ?

Don't know what it is :S

but I think the first question you have the first time you launch UXS was your antivirus... :S and you certainly say "YES" to "do you want to stop this dangerous software ?" ;)

So I think it's that... I don't know what it can be ...

Can you see some "log.txt" file in the LOG directory ? Can you try to launch the exe in administrator mode (SHIFT+right clic -> Launch in admin) ? Can you check your antivirus ?

Thank you.

@2xPutt there is a new version of the srapper that just popped up about an hour ago. it seems to be working now.. go grab that - https://github.com/Universal-Rom-Tools/Universal-XML-Scraper/releases

Apparently, the FFA icone is for the FFDSHOW. So maybe a problem to read the MP3 jingle.

Try to delete it in the UXS Ressource folder ;)

I'm also not able to start the programme. :( I'm still using Windows XP and on my laptop Windows Vista is running. But I don't get the FFA thing.

I deleted the .mp3 jingle thinking it was using the FFDShow as someone mentioned earlier but it still plays the "XFS sound" on startup and immediately crashes.

Newest version doesn't fix anything either, it still crashes on open. Turned off antivirus temporarily (AVG) and it still crashed.

Here is what the log.txt gives me if that helps at all:

I never try on XP and Vista :(

On XP try to put your .net and MSSQL librairy uptodate.

On vista, I think the "bug" is different... Have you an error message ?

I tried it on my fathers laptop and there it is working. He is using Windows 10.
