well, it has been easier than I expected.

Hello,
a great step forward ...
I have created a new folder with the xroar.exe but *NOT* with the xroar.conf ... and it works!!

I will keep making more tests tomorrow.

Are there new 'dependencies', I mean some that were not 'needed' in past versions? AVG keeps saying the fi...

Hello Ciaran,
this is a Murphy's bad luck case ...
I will try on my wife's laptop to see what happens there. Both have the same AVG version ...
I had given a peek at the windows event viewer, but didn't see anything related to xroar unfortunately.
thanks for your help!
cheers

Hi Ciaran,
I have downloaded the last snapshot but unfortunately same behaviour, pity
By the way, AVG keeps analyzing the file the first time I start it but doesn't find any problem!
Is there any place in windows system folders to look for error log files?
cheers
