Script editor won't launch

Hi

Run into a strange problem with the Script editor. It suddenly stopped launching. The process runs and the icon appears on the taskbar, but there's no window. I've tried launching it directly and from within MC.

Tried running a repair on the MC install, no joy. So did a full uninstall of MC, cleaned out all directories and registry entries, ran the MS repair utility on .Net itself, rebooted and reinstalled.

MC launched clean, with no trace of my previous settings and seems to be running fine. Other complex .Net apps such as Visual Studio are running fine. But the script editor still has the same problem.

I've run out of ideas. I know it's not essential, but it is very useful for quick edits. Please advise.

Hello scotpip,

Please follow these instructions: MultiCharts .NET FAQ post 8.

Thanks - that worked.

Anything I can do to prevent this happening again?

Was PL .NET Editor window on an additional screen that was unplugged recently?

No - it's on a laptop.

The only thing that might have caused it was a Microsoft automatic reboot to apply an update while MC was running with the editor open.

It's a new laptop and I forget to change the update settings!

In case this behavior reappears please try to spot was has changed in the setup.
