AlainP Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 Win 10, installation over the previous beta (.54) First time I ran it the following error message appeared: "There was an error loading your settings. Some settings may be incorrect." I clicked "OK" and it started fine. Now it does not show this error message anymore. It feels a bit faster and my Wacom Pen seems smoother..... Thank you all, dev and support. -- Window 11 - 32 gb - Intel I7 - 8700 - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 -- iPad Pro 2020 - 12,9 - 256 gb - Apple Pencil 2 -- iPad 9th gen 256 gb - Apple Pencil 1 -- Macbook Air 15" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Cope Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Thanks Mark and team. I too got the error message but loaded fine - I like the new welcome screen. (Perhaps this is what caused the error mesage first time?)

MikeW Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 I didn't have the error on first run that is being mentioned. I also didn't see the welcome screen until just now when I went tot he help menu and chose it. As it seems like most of the space is used for advertisements, I choose to never show the thing.

Wifestealer Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 I've been using it whole day. The only problem i found is that AD gets hang sometimes. It hangs randomly. Apart from it, no issues. It works so good and performance is good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My1 Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 is it possible to have both the beta and the normal version installed or will that cause problems? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Sean P Posted February 7, 2017 Staff Share Posted February 7, 2017 is it possible to have both the beta and the normal version installed or will that cause problems? That is indeed fine! The Beta and Retail version share different install directories as well as different settings so nothing you do in one will affect the other.
