Hi Clive,
I would actually delete the complete TW Blue folder, not just the config
folder, or you may have problems down the road.
All the best
Steve

Hello John,
I hope this will help. I had exactly the same problem last week, and Kevin
Russell sorted it for me. I asked him to write up the instructions showing what
he did. He responded with:
" Hello John
There is one crucial step you need to do before the new version will work.
Once you've deleted the old version of TWBlue, you need to delete the Config
folder in the TWBlue folder.
You can do this by doing the following:
Press Windows key plus R to go into the Run dialogue.
Type in the following exactly as written here:
%appdata%
This will take you into the Appdata folder.
In that folder, find the TWBlue folder and press Enter to go into that folder.
In the TWBlue folder you'll find another folder called Config.
You must delete the Config folder for the new version to install and work.
If memory serves, during the installation, TWBlue will ask you if you want to
start TWBlue. Select the Yes button and start it.
I then can't quite remember what happens next. You may need to select the New
Account button or it might ask you if you want to authorise TWBlue to work with
Twitter.
When you authorise it, it will take you into the Twitter website. Depending
how you've got this set up, you may need to log onto your Twitter account.
You will then get a screen on the Twitter webpage explaining that an app wants
you to authorise Twitter to let you connect to Twitter via TWBlue. Buried in
the text of that screen is a number. I think it's eight numbers. You need to
then go back to the TWBlue screen and enter these numbers in the edit field on
that screen.
If successful, it will then start to download your tweets, but you need to wait
a few minutes for it to do this.
Because you had to delete your Config folder, you will lose all the settings
you had before in TWBlue, so you will have to re-enter all your favourite
settings again.
Hope this helps.
Kind Regards
Kevin Russell
Ends
And best wishes from me too,
Clive

Hello Kevin,
Do you think you could write in an email an outline of exactly what we did to
get TWBlue up and working again, because John Godber is writing to one of the
lists, saying he's having precisely the same problem. He is a Win10 user, and
is at exactly the point I was when you pulled my TWBlue out of the doldrums.
Also, I won't have to call for help if anything like this happens again.
Thanks,
Clive

Hello,
i must apologise for the length of this email and, probably my own stupidity
with my problem.
I too am having difficulties with TWBlue. I have tried to follow all the advice
from the list but, sadly, when I try to run the app nothing at all happens.
I'm running windows 10. i uninstalled my previous version of twblue, downloaded
the new install file from the link given by Martin and followed the prompts.
I've now done this six times! I've run the troubleshooter but whatever options
I go for nothing happens.
Does anybody have any further advice? am I now the only person having this
issue?
