After installation, I've noticed that I immediately get a notice for new messages. When I click the tab, I receive a displayed message that says something like "...retrieving messages." After a while, the application just exits. I think that the BOINC processes are still running, just the manager aborts. Anyone else having this issue. (I've notice it on at least 4 of my machines, all running Windows 7 Pro or higher. CPUs are Intel) ID: 51383 ·

And if so, is there a full runtime debugger log file in there? Don't (*please* don't :P) post the whole thing, but just check if it matches - Unhandled Exception Record - Reason: Access Violation (0xc0000005) at address 0x000000014018AAB8 read attempt to address 0x00000141 (are both addresses identical?) If so, the devs are aware, and your reports will give some useful extra routes by which the problem can be triggered. If your addresses are different, please tell us and hang on to the file - it might be needed for additional diagnosis. Thanks. ID: 51390 ·
