Booted up Aura today, by clicking on a project file and it crashed upon startup - aura25.exe Error, log being created. I noticed in the corner that DEMO was stamped on the top of the Aura interface - dongle problem. So I turned my computer off - unplugged and replugged the dongle, booted - did the little rainbow tech diagnostic, which tested fine - and so I clicked on the project again... no longer booted in Demo mode, but still crashed after the %78 percent mark.
So I figured maybe the project was corrupt - so I tried to boot Aura just on its own. Still no good. Then I remembered that one time (I think) I had exited Aura - and saved a config that had a window that extended partially off the screen, be it the toolbar, project window or whatever - and Aura wouldnt boot under that config. So I moved all my config files from the config dir, and loaded the project just fine. - Now, the off the screen thing is just a guess - something in the back of my head reminded me (maybe) that was the problem, from some previous instance. And because I cant load the config file - I couldnt tell you where I had my windows positioned when I saved the config file.
So, I have Aura working great now (Aura 2.5b) can continue working on my project now, but - I think this warrants being checked out.
Thanks,
