All,

After installing DataWarrior 5.5, the application simply does not run on a Windows 10 system. Some investigation does show that it is erroring out, but the only indication with no detail is in the Windows event logs (the generic BEX64 error).

We have attempted to run with elevated permissions with the same result. We have also reinstalled the application with no luck. We can also confirm that antivirus software is not reporting any issues relating to DataWarrior.

Any further suggestions/advice would be appreciated.

Do you see any messages, when starting DataWarrior.exe from the command line?
Did you check the MD5 sum of the msi?
Did you make sure that none of the exe, dll, or jar files in the DataWarrior directory are blocked in the file properties dialog?
You may download a debug version 'DataWarrior_d.exe' from openmolecules.org/datawarrior/dw550_d.zip. Then unpack and copy these files into the DataWarrior installation directory. Make sure, none of the new files is blocked. Then start DataWarrior_d.exe from the command line. Any messages?

Thomas

Unfortunately it looks like despite the attempt to execute in both elevated and non-elevated CMD the application still does not open. The debug download link appears to either be dead or has been moved. Is there another location where that version of the application can be pulled from? i.e. the GitHub page or another page on the site etc?

The GitHub page[1] you refer to is going to be valuable if you know how to convert the source code into an executable. Else, use the installer suitable for your operational system from the download page.[2] And note that there are three, each for only one of Linux .or. Mac .or Windows.

Speaking of such (Linux) and the weekend ahead, an alternative approach could be the installation of a Linux distribution (e.g., xubuntu), side-by-side to your Windows operating system, or on top of WSL[3] which then would be the platform to run DataWarrior instead. (In this case, using these environments, you would elect DataWarrior's installer /for Linux/.)

Unfortunately, it appears that the application does not open despite attempts to execute in both elevated and non-elevated CMD. The debug download link appears to be broken or relocated.

sorry again, for some reason the link was still incorrect. I have corrected the link in the messages above. It should work now.

I am having the same issue that datawarrior v5.50 will not run on Win 10. Absolutely nothing (visible) happens. Permissions are fine and there is no virus check going on, also I do not have SentinelOne installed as mentioned previously. Is there a repository of older versions for windows?
Thanks,
Greg

Hmm, Please ignore my message above...
I just saw a thread in "if my PC do not install office, how can we install datawarrior and initiate it?" referencing the need to install 'vcruntime140.dll' Once I did that datawarrior runs fine.

Thanks for a fine program, it's a great tool! I use it predominately on Macs and Linux, but occasionally need to run it on Windows... maybe need to push the 'dll' message to the top.

regards,
Greg
