Running Windows 10 Pro 20H2 Build 19042.630
Since I updated HTMLPad to 2020 16.2.0.229, the program does not start anymore.
Immediately after the update, the program froze at the splash screen. After about 5 minutes, Windows report that the program does not respond.
I tried a few times with the same results.
A few cycles of uninstall/install and even full registry cleanup does not fix the problem. After a clean install, I get prompted for a few settings on startup but after that ... freeze/hang.
I thought that was caused by my remote connection (Windows RDP) to the office computer. The next time I was in my office, I tried HTMLPad once again and it still freeze/hang at startup.
I installed it in a VMware Workstation guest running on my office computer (same Windows 10 build) and HTMLpad 2020 16.2.0.229 runs just fine.
Is there a know fix for the startup hang?
