There are so many things that could be the reason.
Please, add a sample project illustrating the problem.
Fyi: in AC 15.08 I could not replicate this problem.
The problem exists only on the develeopment PC. Two other machines run the sample without any problem.
May be there is a problem with AMD CPU?
for testing:
– compile project
– click the button
– switch between some folders
-> with sTSkinProvider the openDialog “hangs”
-> withot stSkinPovider and sTSkinManager allworks fine
I tried your project without a problem.
I’m inclined to think it’s a Windows problem. You’re running the same Windows version I have. But AC put a lot of work into showing Windows dialog in native skin. There must be a reason for this. Even if I change sSkinManager1.Options.ChangeSysColors to True, things still work.
My advice would be to go to AC version 15.08 Although it’s labeled beta, it’s very stable already.
Hello, Siegbert
Thank you for the sources of the demo.
I have compiled it, but can’t repeat the error or hangs on the several PC’s (AMD CPU used).
Can you share your Exe file also, please? I will research it.
BTW. Maybe antivirus doesn’t allows some actions in some cases? Can you try to disable antivirus temporary?
