Windows 11 Help

Post by no1g8tor96 » Thu Mar 24, 2022 8:33 pm

I just got a new PC and it has windows 11 on it. None of my old exe files are running. I only have windows secutriy on it not any 3rd party antivirus. Can you help please. Tried them on my windows 10 machine and works fine.

Thanks so much

You mean your old Livecode exe or standalones created with Livecode or what?

Could you try to right click the program icon and select open.

Does that help?

Do you mean they are not running at all or you cannot start them because "Windows protected your PC"?

Did you have already a look at the Windows event log. Are there any entries regarding the programs?

well its something with this dell XPS brand new Piece of garbage. I ran parallels on my mac with 11 and it works fine. OMG. I hate windows.

If you have any suggestions. Please let me know.

I also created a local account admin and it still did the same thing.

Maybe a Windows update.

Does your VM have all current Win updates? Does you Dell also? Or does you Dell have, but the VM have not or vice versa?

I tried here just on my Win 11VM and on a Win 11 hardware PC with a standalone created with LC 9.6.2. No problems.
Both have all current Windows (security) updates installed.

vm is on mac. XPS is stock windows 10 upgraded to 11. ALl updates. Turned UAC and firewall windows defender etc all off. Every other EXE runs but anything I created with live code just does nothing. No on screen errors etc...Just spins cursor then quits.

No idea.

Maybe will do a windows repair and see. Did not want to but who knows.

If you think of anything im game. short of blowing this up...i hate to do it but its next.


Thank you

I fixed it. Pro tip...lol

I did the media creation tool to create ISO and upgraded it keeping files and apps and it fixed it all. Sorry to bother you. Hope this might help someone down the line.

Thank you all

My client has 3 users with the same problem and we haven't been able to track it down. Could you explain what you did exactly? I'm not a Windows user so if you could give me the steps you took we can ask the user to try it.

There are thousands of users and so far only 3 have reported the problem. Can you help?
