WinVice & Windows 10 error

OK. I've dealt with this for a week or two and it's time to see if a solution is available.

WinVice 2.4 (win64 x64 mingw)

Anytime I double click a .d64, I get this error:

VICE Error!
Cannot startup logging system.

I hit enter (or click OK) and that is that. I haven't had any issues with Vice, just this silly error.

Any way to fix this? I can deal with hitting enter, but would rather Vice just boot up without my having to do so.

After you tried a nightly build? Grab the latest here -> http://vice.pokefinder.org/

Your problem might be fixed already considering VICE 2.4 is four years old now - released in late 2012. (pre-Windows 10)

I haven't checked for the latest stable version, thought 2.4 was the last. Laziness I guess. Doesn't happen with 2.4.11, so for sure it's the version I use. I could deal with it, but meh, I'll go find the latest build.

Thanks Jon :)

Just downloaded WinVice 3 to check if this bug is gone, but nah, it still exists. After a bit of googling, the amount of helpful informations I could gather considering this slight annoyance is close to zero.

Oh and by the way, can't save settings neither.

+ a special bonus bug: if I'm dragging a .prg to Vice's window, it says it can't autostart specified file.

Windows 7 here, btw.

Try putting it somewhere other than Program Files, the folder has special permissions to stop virues/malware etc.

Well I would gladly report them, only if the project wasn't using that malware-ridden SourceForge ordeal.

Anyhow...

Facepalming myself for not thinking of this yet... Probably as I avoid placing executables outside Program Files, but yes, this actually helped. Thanks!
