JoinFS Crashes on start

Post by Niten »

I put by error a not valid char in specification of XPLANE folder path.

JoinFS crashed, and now, event unistalling and rebooting before installing again, I am not more able to start JoinFS.

Here the error I got from event log on Windows:

Applicazione: JoinFS-XPLANE.exe
Versione framework: v4.0.30319
Descrizione: il processo è stato terminato a causa di un'eccezione non gestita.
Informazioni sull'eccezione: System.ArgumentException
in System.IO.Path.CheckInvalidPathChars(System.String, Boolean)
in System.IO.Path.Combine(System.String, System.String, System.String)
in JoinFS.úåûóáãòóöéëç.õâñå(Boolean)
in JoinFS.úåûóáãòóöéëç.Load()
in JoinFS.Main.öçòìüè()
in System.Threading.ExecutionContext.RunInternal(System.Threading.ExecutionContext, System.Threading.ContextCallback, System.Object, Boolean)

in System.Threading.ExecutionContext.Run(System.Threading.ExecutionContext, System.Threading.ContextCallback, System.Object)
in System.Threading.ThreadHelper.ThreadStart()

NOTE: I think even unistalling some entries remin on the system registry that prevent JoinFS to install and start succesfully.

Any workaround for this ?

Thank you.

You should be able to find the file 'user.config' in 'Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Peter_Memmott\JoinFS-XPLANE.exe_*****\1.0.0.0\. Manually edit the file and change the entry for 'XPlaneFolder'. That should fix it.

I would uninstall JoinFS and remove anything JoinFS in documents and c:\Users\Yourname\AppData

Reinstall JoinFS and try again.
Although I'll imagine Peter will be along shortly to say exactly which file it has remembered.

Thanks Peter, that was not exactly the solution but gave me a cue to better search, so I found also: "C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\JoinFS-XPLANE" where there was an additional fiels with path inside. I removed BOTH and reinstalled from scratch. Now it is ok.

KR,
