Eagle 7.5 will not run after a few times without a reinstall -- help

boylansr over 10 years ago

I installed Eagle 7.5 on a Windows 10 laptop. I use it a few times. I go to use it again but it does not run. I uninstall it and clean the register with regedit and reinstall it. I run eagle a few more times then have to repeat the above. Anyone know how to break this cycle?

    Hi,

     

    could you please give us a bit more information?

     

    Do you always login to Windows as the same user?

    In which directory is EAGLE installed?

    If you reboot and want to restart EAGLE what is the EAGLE error message?

     

    Could you please check if in the EAGLE-7.x.x/bin folder is a file

    named eagle.key? Is it still there when EAGLE refuses to start?

    1. Yes I always login as the same user.

    2. C:\EAGLE-7.5.0 is the install directory.

    3. There is no error message it just does not start (the mouse pointer shows busy for a few second).

    4. Yes the eagle.key file is still there.

    5. So far Eagle 7.5.3 beta is working three days without a problem. I have never had a problem with versions 4.0-7.4. Eagle 7.5 showed no problems while it was running, it only had the problem of me closing the program and then not running the next time I try to start it again. If I reinstall it without removing any entries in the registry same problem, but if I clean up the registry and reinstall it will work for awhile. I assume the problem happens at closing the program down and evolves the registry.

    You should tell which kind of  eagle license you have.
