I get the following error:

The process cannot access the file 'C:\Users\andreas\AppData\Local\qirx4\qirx4.config' because it is being used by another process.

although I have not opened that file and there is only one instance of Qirx running.

The message originates in Windows. It is misleading, as only one process is using this file. Perhaps a thread collision. Is it possible to reproduce the behavior?

Hi Clem,

maybe this will help a little bit...

After switching to a previously visited channel, QIRX selects the last service listened to and displays its SPI logo right next to the SID. Now the message box appears and blocks the display of all SPI logos in the service list until you have confirmed the message box.

From since the beginning of the "Windows" era, message boxes have been evil and a permanent source of all kind of trouble. This one here is more of the harmless form, the aggressive ones stay behind a program, invisible, and prevent the program from running, making you think that the program crashed. I think I will stop showing this error message in a future release.

Of course, this will not fix the error behind that msg box (which should be done, of course)!
