[Ilay]

Hi

I tried to report about this:

I download trial version - 2014

Has anybody such bug at windows(my OS - win8 x64):

1. It started normally.

2. Draw anything or install libraries.

3. Then save project(or not), then close VW(do not save) -> crashed.

If you attempt to save a file, does it save properly, it is simply crashing when you close instead of closing normally?

Hello Jim

If you attempt to save a file, does it save properly

Yes.

But when i try to close VW(windows controls of closing - X) after saving, it crashed

If i close by File > Quit - No crash.

I've seen that on a few Windows machines from users. Normally it does not cause any problems, however I have had this help in some cases:

Is the trial already available? I did not get the e-mail saying it is. Please don't tell me that it looks at your location to restrict trial downloads....

Hi to all

Jim, thanks!

I resolve this shutdown of app, also same happens if user changes default user dir in preferences

Single solution as Run as admin does not work. Also need to switch "windows xp sp3" * compatibility mode

* - i use it, seen that vs2005 libs during installation. Seems many companies switch to vs2012 for supporting of win8(-8.1)

(i'm sorry for my English)

Im not really sure about location-based dates, however the English language version of Vectorworks 2014 is indeed available for download:
