Is there some way to clear bad data from a terminated session? #31

Open jkgibbons opened 5 years ago

jkgibbons commented 5 years ago

I had a session of Drishti lock up, the main display blanking out and the app no longer responsive to input. (I suspect this was because the graphics configuration was invoking an underpowered graphics card rather than the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 that was also installed.)

Unfortunately, when I resorted to shutting down the process from the Task Manager, it seems to have left things in an unstable state. Trying to launch again, I get a series of popups, "Invalid imageBuffer" and "Invalid lowresBuffer" alternating. The main screen opens, then one more pair of warnings, and it shuts down.

Is there any cleanup I can do, such as with regedit, to clear this? This is Windows 10.

Hi, In Nvidia Control Panel, make sure that under Manage 3D settings in Preferred graphics processor drop down list you have selected High performance Nvidia processor, rather than Auto Select or Integrated Graphics card. Cheers, Ajay

Thanks, I have done that, but Drishti still locks up with those messages when I restart. Are there some working files I can delete, or regedit cleanup?

Drishti does not store anything in registry. Age old solution - rebooting might help.
