Kirby Alarm 2.11, causes Opera to Freeze and others ?
« on: January 12, 2019, 07:26 PM »
I have Installed Kirby Alarm v2.11 ( Windows 7 ) ...Ive been using it for years ok, but recently, by a process of elimination in 'Start Up' ( msconfig ) It seems Kirby is causing Opera, and Videopad both to open normally a few times, then they BOTH Freeze ( Force shutdown box appears ) ..
I really want this Kirby 2.11 as it has all my stored Reminders ... any help what i can do from here ??? i dont want to use another reminder company, as ive used Kirby for a long time !! :-*

I can't help with the original question, but, you appear to be using the last free version (Web site checked 2019-01-14):

Kirby Alarm & Task Scheduler

Kirby Alarm Pro (v4.45)

Kirby Alarm Pro Lite and Kirby Alarm Pro are the same program, but with some of the more advanced features disabled.

Kirby Alarm v2.11 (Old free version)

Old free version of Kirby Alarm v2.11 originally released in 2004.

I don't know why the file is dated 2015 if it's for a 2004 program.  But... maybe a program that old doesn't play nicely with late-model Windows?  The current Pro version - now 11 years old itself - works fine on Vista Home Premium, but I haven't tried it on anything later.  Maybe time to consider registering, or an alternative program?
