you don't need a Java installation for DataWarrior to work, because DataWarrior comes with its own JRE.

Can you check the properties of the DataWarrior.exe file? Possibly you have to unlock the executable file. You might also check the actelionclip.dll file.

If this doesn't help, can you open a CMD window, 'cd' to the DataWarrior installation folder and run DataWarrior from the command line (type 'datawarrior.exe' Wink

. Do you see error messages? If not, then check, whether you have some security software running that prevents it from starting? In this case you might need to white-list DataWarrior.exe.

I have a similar issue in Windows 11; it seems to have developed in the last month or so as I used to be able to run DataWarrior without issue but it is not working today. Running DataWarrior from the command line produces no error messages.
In the windows event log I have the following error; there is a longer information message as well.

I have the same issue - no visible errors, just a crash noted in the log. Ive been periodically fiddling around for a few weeks to see if I can identify the cause but without any luck.

DataWarrior is working well on some computers with Windows 11 (and the same security software etc) but not on others.

My issue is resolved; it turned out to be being blocked by new antivirus software installed by our IT group.

To follow up my comment above - further investigation has identified that our problem was also due to security software (SentinelOne) blocking DataWarrior. Inconsistent outcomes on different machines arose from the fact not all computers had been switched to the new security software from the previous one we used.
