Default Double bugs in 2.4.3 - 10-17-2016, 04:35 PM

I'm running Alice 2.4e on a 64-bit windows 10 machine. The program is installed into the Program Files(x86) folder.

When I start it, I occasionally receive an error on startup which would not appear to be a significant problem, but here it is below.

Also, when I try to run the software update using the help menu I receive the other error listed below.

Any feedback appreciated.

I decided to re-download, unpack, and push Alice 2.4e into the same folder. This appears to have fixed the problems.
One possible reason for the problem might be that I upgraded my PC from Windows 7 to Windows 10 with all software already installed. Don't really know, but this could be something for teachers to look out for if upgrading their O/S.

Interesting. Is there a copy of the Alice program files in the Windows.old folder?

Default Layout and file access error - 01-03-2017, 08:36 PM

Mr Moke,

Your first error just says that Alice fails to layout the thumbnail of all your Alice 2 a2w files in the Startup window. Not a major problem as the problem will fix itself when the window redraws.

As for the second error, it is either a missing (or corrupted) file error or you do not have read/write permission to the file location.
