[RESOLVED] Windows 8 - Program Has Stopped Working - Incompatible Program
My vb.net software wont work on windows 8 :blush:
I'm running windows 8 x64 on a virtual machine
When i open the program, it crashes and a message pops up "myprogram has stopped working"
I've tried running it under compatability mode (win 7, vista, xp) and with running it as an administrator but it wont load up
I've looked in the eventmgr but cant find any errors unless i'm looking in the wrong place?
I've ran the program compatibility troubleshooter and the results show "incompatible program detected"
Any ideas on how i can debug this?

So W8? And a virtual machine? What could possibly go wrong? :eek:
What target framework and CPU did you use in compiling the program? Did you include any third party controls etc. or API calls? Have you got VS 2012? Debugging it in 2012 might well be instructive as it is designed for W8.

forgot to update - it ended up being the 3rd party obscurification i use. Replaced the reference files and all is working :)
