Mouser just a heads up. The new beta does not work well with the windows search plugin. It forces it to close. :(

does it force it to close on startup -- ie refuse to even load it?
if so, blame dc member ewemoa: he forced me to add a feature where if the plugin returned false from the Initialization function then FARR considers it to be reporting that it cannot be loaded.

idont think that can be the new farr beta doing that.  i'd love to have real confirmation that using the older farr exe gives dif result.  it sounds like a dif conflict with the plugin..
BUT if it is the new farr beta.. then i need to know.

can anyone else confirm or refute?

i dont have windows search installed so its hard for me to test.
but if you install the non-beta (just install over beta), you dont get the error?

or let me ask differently, are you 100% sure you didn't change anything else (or install any other plugins) that could be responsible for the new error?

although the problem is seen with klipkeeper, the problem isn't actually in klipkeeper, it's in the other (fscript) plugin.
for fix see https://www.donation...ex.php?topic=18622.0
