Project options access violation on Win 7
lazarus / 11-Options

Just installed Lazarus 9.30 on Windows 7. Whenever I open or load
options in the Project Options dialog and then click OK, I get an
access violation. However, if I manually set the options and click OK
all is well. It doesn't seem to like to "Open recent" or "Load from
file". This happens on two different computers. I have also tried
running Lazarus as administrator. Why am I getting this access
violation? A previous install did not have this issue.

Thanks!
Dave

Same problem here, with Windows XP: On 0.9.28, I was using the option
to save/load compiler options to files (available from the "..."
button) successfully. In 0.9.30, doing so reproducibly causes an
access violation, others have reported the same. Is there anything
I/we are doing wrong, any workaround?

Thanks!

Lucky me, I worked using Lazarus 0.9.30 (Release Version), your
problems not yet appear. I've tried to simulate any possibility which
can make your problem appear in my computer but until now it's not yet
appear. It might strange case.

Well, why you not install Lazarus 0.9.30.1 ?
Since, this version is based on Lazarus 0.9.30 but improved with
newest bugs fix, So might your problem will disappear, coz might it
was fixed by the Lazarus team/contributors (I hope).

Lazarus 0.9.30.1 more stable and more comfortable for us to used to
develop the project. Trust me, it's works.

Hihihi..
Well, I am little curious. But I cannot produces the same case with
you.

Note, It might help you (if you're using Windows OS)
I thought, you must try to change the default path of "Setting and
Configuration" files.

for me, I always use store my configuration path into installation
path. Since I'm update my lazarus everyday.

So, I change the shortcut target into => "C:\Lazarus\lazarus.exe
--pcp=C:\Lazarus\zConfigFiles\"


I think, that's real bug of Lazarus.
Okay, Nice info, Sir.

Well, why you not report it into bugtracker?
