Hi @ all,

my first attempt to use EOF stuck on a frozen start. After appearing of a grey programm window several black ones seemed to open in background. Title shows EOF - No song. No menu available. Quitting programm only via task manager.

Facts:
Version eof_1.8RC12 with Hotfix 12-20-2018
Windows 10 64Bit
Install path D:\Downloads\Programme\CDLC\EOF
eof.exe excluded from antivirus scanning (McAfee)
tried win8 compatibility mode
no unblock button on file preferences
logfile attached

Any further recommendationes to solve the problem?

Is that the whole log file? These kind of issues have generally been interference by security software (sandboxing, antivirus, etc). EOF does work fine in Windows 10 x64.

I tried again with fully disabled antivirus, but got the same issue. The logfile is the same except the first line. .....

Now I tried on my studio pc with mainly the same software configuation without any problems. Only on my laptop EOF doesn't work. Not my prefered solution :(

Can you post a screenshot of what EOF looks like after you open it on the laptop? It may be some particular graphics hardware/etc. that EOF isn't able to get along with.
