App crashing

Issue #4 resolved
Former user created an issue

I have a few URLs setup to load with IE, I also setup an auto URL with a wildcard (*) to run Chrome by default with a 2 second delay.

when I click a link and no browser window is open everything works fine

when chrome is already open and I click a link BC does the job, but crashes

    Interesting. Could you post the crash details as well as yourBrowserChooser2Config.xml file (found in %appdata%\BrowserChooser2)

    The crash details are hidden in the crash dialog. There is a more or details buttons that has a wall of text. I need that wall of text.

    Thanks for those files. I love they way you have configured the tool!

    Unfortunately, the only thing I'm seeing out of those files is an error in kernelbase.dll. A Windows core file.

    The only thing that seems to come up with my Google searches is OS corruption - especially if other applications are also crashing. Not saying that is your problem.

    A final thought: when it crashes, does it give out any other information?

    I will keep looking on my end, but using you file, it did not crash my test machines.

    I just had a closer look at my code - I wonder if the way the app ends may be causing the issue. It is not the cleanest exit.

    Okay, here is a version that has a cleaner exit, hopping it fixes it for you. As well, it compiled as Debug, so the error message should give me more details. Finally, updates are disabled in debug versions, so you will have to check for updates manually. I have no ETA for the next release.

    Thanks for looking into this. I did not have much time today to test it, but it looks promising. I'll let you know.

    Thanks again
