Publisher crashes, causes Blue Screen (BOD)


Recommended Posts

Hi,

uninstalling OneDrive did help. I hope that reinstalling it won't cause the same issue again, because I need it.

Regarding stability, may I suggest you start to use crowdtesting in your development? Plattforms like test.io would help you to discover these critical bugs earlier in development and enable you to fix it before release. I bought publisher and the first thing I've encountered was serious crashes (first blue screen of death in years!) and nonworking software. In most cases I would've just asked for a refund and avoid the company in the future.

Since the bug is, as far as anyone can tell, a Microsoft bug not a Serif bug, I'm not sure how any crowd testing would help Serif fix anything related to this. The fix needs to come from Microsoft, I think.

What Walt has said is correct it is an issue thats in Microsofts hands to fix. We aren't the only software affected by this problem.

Please read the (rewritten) FAQ which says that Microsoft have now fixed this bug in December's Windows Patch. After installing the Microsoft update you should be able to use onedrive again
