That's happened to me too. You need to delete the directory <Wimp$ScrapDir>.Photodesk2 and all its subdirectories and contents. eg. *wipe <Wimp$ScrapDir>.Photodesk2 ~C F R ~V The next time Photodesk starts it will recreate a 'clean' one. You will of course lose any images you may have already had on your Photodesk clipboard. > ...any clues, anybody? i had similar bad luck with 3.08 and was > hoping the new version would fix things. I was hoping the same - some things are fixed - some new problems have arisen. I also find it essential to stop the 'TwainPDIF' module from loading by putting a '|' at the start of the relevant line in !Photodesk.!Run - eg. |IF "<TWAIN$Path>"<>"" THEN RMLoad <Photodesk$Dir>.Modules.TwainPDIF otherwise I get my Iyonix crashing. -- Contact Me - http://www.bapfish.org.uk/contactme/ Web - http://www.bapfish.org.uk/
