Bonjour,

After installing Build 715, it is impossible to launch BIAB.
I tried several configurations: with/without DAW upgrade with the same unsuccessfull result.

I tried it several times during the beta and this build always failed on my computer. It just won't even start. I have not had a chance yet to try the released version but I assume it is the exact same build.

The term 'everything' could mean many different things to many different people.
Two questions:
1: Do you run Avast A/V software or another brand?
2: As part of everything, did you try temporarily disabling the A/V software?

Use AVG A/V and yes to disabling. It did not help.

Thanks

Hi Howard,

Please see this post, about creating a log file of the bootup.
It may provide something of help?

I encountered the same problem with AVG free. Added bbw.exe and bbw64.exe to the exceptions list and seems to work now.

This is being discussed here:

You should contact AVG or AVAST and report a false positive, and in the meantime add an exception to bbw (or the bb folder if necessary, since Avast does not provide any information on what it is upset about, it may not be bbw64.exe).
