Cannot start the Desktop Clock App V4.0 or install it with the msi file in Windows 11 #39

Closed MAP6768 closed 10 months ago

For some reason, while I can install previous versions on my computer (Windows 11), when i try to start the DesktopClock.exe V.4 or the install.desktopClock.msi nothing happens. I just cannot install or use the latest version while I can do it with previous versions.
I love your App. Your assistance would be appreciated. PS I even disabled Norton 360.

Hi, were you using the countdown mode?

This should be fixed in v4.1.0 :)

Thanks Daniel.

I never use the countdown feature.

However, while I could not use or even download completely the file DesktopClock.exe (even when indicating that it was safe), I was able to successfully download the .msi file with Edge browser (not Chrome) after insisting that I keep it.

Something in those files triggers the threat protect mecanism.

Be that as it may, I was finally able to install DesktopClock with the .msi file.

However, the "Show background" feature does not work. The background is always there whether I toggle or not the Show Background.

In the settings file, changing the "BackgroundEnabled": from true to false, does not change anything.

I had to put the "BackgroundOpacity": to 0.0,

Cheers,

Michel
