I looked in Troubleshooting and found the post that the new ZLib for 64-bit has a problem with AlphaControls and that alternative ZLib libraries work. I tried that but still have the same problem.
It made me wonder though if a compiler setting, or some such thing, changed from 11.0 to 11.1 and that is the problem. If only I had more time to troubleshoot this myself I could start to make progress but I just don’t have the time. I’ve made a start to at least define my problem and where it appears. The fact that others can get AC to work in 64-bits with Delphi 11.2 and 11.3 now gives me comfort that it can be done. I just need more time….
Thanks Lasse for the suggestion!

There are many 64-bit issues which ASLR reveals. You can set it to false in linking options until those issues are fixed. See Building > Delphi Compiler > Linking > Support high-entropy 64-bit address space layout randomization (ASLR).
I have fixed some obivous cases by myself where I saw Integer casts done for pointers. Those must be NativeInt casts. But not all, I still have to keep that option False.
Cool! I will check out ASLR this weekend. Thanks for the tip – I am truly thankful for your help.

Holy doodle! That one change appears to have fixed it! My program is now running with Delphi 11.3 and I see my small issue (button captions are showing in black initially instead of the yellow color they should be using) the program appears to be good and running.
Thanks, Lasse, you have saved me literally hours of time – the most precious thing in the world.
I’m still hoping that the AlphaControls developer is alive and well too btw.

Hello!
The AlphaControls package v17 has been released today, the issue must be solved there. Check it, please.
