Access Violation
« on: June 11, 2008, 10:50 AM »
Running FARR 2.06.05 I get an access violation any time I shut the computer down.

Access Violation at address 74985DEE in module MSXML3.dll. Read of address 00000020

FARR runs fine at all time during normal computer ops and the problem only appears at Windows shutdown. Shutting down FARR manually does not trigger the error.

I installed the new version and have rebooted twice with no error message. I do get an error ding sound when shutting down but no dialog box in the way of shutdown. I don't know what that error is or even what program is triggering it. But, so far so good for the new FARR. Thanks for the quick reaction.

That particular error went away, I now get a 'EAccess Violation'  if the following plugins are active. 
Network connection
Printer List
Process Kill
Send Message

I found this out because it worked fine on the laptop, but i got the error on my other pc, so i started with just FARRFOX and the LOC one, and started enabling the others 1 at a time then rebooting

Hope this helps

Grogy can you be more specific.
Are you saying that you now get an error with those plugins and you didn't before?
Are you saying the error occurs at shutdown but not otherwise (not at normal program exit)?
By "active" do you just mean if they are installed?
Do these plugins otherwise work for you?

i also had these errors but they disappeared after i disabled some of the plugins which i didn't use previously such as "Environment Variables" and "Timer" - both of which i couldn't get it to work with the previous version of Farr.

Yes.  I've had the plugins installed for some time now.  (haven't really used them much but i was getting used to them)
The error occurs at shutdown, i have not seen it at other times,
By active i mean they are loaded, in the list with a tick next to their name and the plugin itself actually works fine.  (Tho i wouldn't know about send message, it was just on the list, i installed them all  :-[ )

Sorry if i was a bit vague before, hope this helps.

Looks like a new latest fix may have solved the remaining problems at shutdown.
Try downloading 2.06.07.

Thank you so much to everyone on the incredible bug testing and squashing squad.  Solving these problems would be impossible without your patience and help. It's one of the reasons that I love donationcoder community so much :)
