WB 5 stopped working on x64

 

I did have 5.00.001 running until just recently. I have WinUpdated but also installed several new apps. Sigh I do miss my WB. Any way any skin loaded and I get an access violation in explorer.exe. Strange thing is no matter what (ie debug flags set in OS which changes memory locations a lot) the instruction pointer is always pointing to the same location

RIP = 00660894F8

Would like some help or instruction to bring back WB.

Thanks

I hear you. I've experienced a similar problem in that WB5 doesn't seem to load properly since the last update. I, too, am running XP x64 with lots of memory. I find that I have to kill WBInstall64.exe and then manually load WB from the Start Menu. Some times I'm presented with a dialogue box suggesting that I have to reboot my computer after installing the program, or I can select to use additional resources. I opt for the additional resources and then the program seems to work. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the program several times, but that doesn't seem to help. Love the program, so I hope this issue gets resolved soon!
