Milton keeps crashing on me at startup, every time Getting

messages in the log (see below).

I'm using Win7 SP1 x64, GPU is Intel HD3000 (i5-2520m), 16GB RAM

Thanks for the report.

The two "Could not open file!" and "Failed to read settings file" are harmless errors. They just occur when Milton starts for the first time on a clean install.

From the log file I would assume it's crashing somewhere in the ImGUI loading code. I can't really debug this without a repro :(

I don't know either. the window shows up for a split second (no controls just a frame) than the process terminates leaving only this log file and I see no trace in the event viewer. I tested on another Win7 SP1 x64 computer with i3 and intel 520, and it works fine, but also that's a clean install, so in the end I have no idea what's wrong with my current set up. all the drivers are up to date, msvc libraries installed (2008-2019), I don't know what the other system requirements are, but no other program shows this kind of behevior. weak :(

this happens to me also.
