WLW crash on startup
Question
-
Hi,
today I set up WLW to work with nucleus. It worked like a charm. When I published my first article I got an internal server error (500) b/c of a wrong date format. But it wasn't a problem, the article was publsihed anyways. After that I expierenced the following. When switiching the views in WLW, WLW reported to crash (being more precises: The application froze and then I got this nice windows with an erroor occured ... I clicked "okay" and WLW kept on working). Later on I closed the program. When I tried to start it again, the WLW splash screen appeared and after a few seconds it crashed (this time for real). So I looked at the logs. And the last couple of entries showed:
WindowsLiveWriter,1.2124,None,00001,13-May-2010 19:58:54.752,"User is opted out of CEIP","" WindowsLiveWriter,1.2124,None,00002,13-May-2010 19:58:54.776,"Starting Windows Live Writer 14.0.8117.416","" WindowsLiveWriter,1.2124,None,00003,13-May-2010 19:58:54.776,".NET version: 2.0.50727.4927","" WindowsLiveWriter,1.2124,None,00004,13-May-2010 19:58:54.879,"No legacy directory to monitor for plugins.

So I did some goolging and found out to delete the keywords in %APPDATA%\Local\Windows Live Writer. It didn't help. Therefore, I took a depper look at the logs. And the following lines are last ones before the URI problem appaers:

You can email your LOG file to wlw-team@microsoft.com for them to review.
If you can't get that far, it's in the folder:
C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Local\Windows Live Writer
I hope this helps.
