Quits after login

Ready to play quits after login screen (no error reported)

October 17, 2009 10:04 PM from

After I launch ready to play, it brings up login screen with my username.

If I type in the password, it launches, goes to startup screen, then quits..

The first time I install it, it allows me to select the games to support, but as soon as that is done, it quits.

I have uninstalled, and reinstalled, and get the same result

Other item to note, I can not check any of the checkboxes on the login screen. Also, nothing logged in the event viewer under admin tools, for the launch or quit.

Using WinXP SP3

If I don't hit the ok to copy the text and instead just click the [X] the program seems to run normally.

Another thing.. None of the check boxes work for me on the login screen. Although it may just be a graphical glitch, because autologon seems to work sometimes, It's never checked, even though I click on it.

If I go to the "About Ready to Play" and go and copy to my clipboard the versions, I get an exception with this detail.

Now that I have check box control, I see when this happens (I can now uncheck autosign in)

It appears to after I load my user id. If I use a bad id, it rejects and send me back to the sign in without the error. If I log in properly, it happens around when the screen changes.

BigBad can you please email me your C:\ProgramData\Stardock\ReadyToPlay\InstalledGames.xml? The bug your getting is due to a bad or duplicate entry in that file. you can back it up and then move it out of that folder and RTP should stop giving that error. But I'd really like to find the offending entry and fix it so it doesnt happen again

[email protected]

Thanks

Today's update appears to have fixed it... just loaded it.

fyi: I still do not have the file you mentioned, although it appears to be working with no exceptions now
