Of course, the obvious solution to this one is not to associate .eedata files to anything. DDE is the brainchild of insane coders from the 80s.

Yea I’m sure it’s related to the DDE. I know what that is. I just don’t wanna mess with it lol. Minor glitch for an awesome program.

its crazy this is happening. eehack is a really basic program with really generic (but bloated because i use qt) library set.

i made the file association with this generic installer-maker-thingie program i was using.

i lost the install script and forget which program i used....... so ill be using something else for the next version

hopefully that means problem solved....?

we shall see.

i refuse to give a crap about or research or look into how windows file associations actually work in modern versions of windows.

Now you're starting to sound almost as curmudgeonly as I do. When I went to work for my current employer (21 years ago) I was the Microsoft kool-aid drinker, and my boss was the dyed-in-the-wool linux bigot. Ironically, our roles have completely reversed. His current punishment for me is deploying Exchange server after running sendmail and then postfix for the past 25 years. I would rather drink gasoline.

Personally, I would simply remove the file associations but that's because I never bothered creating one in my current setup and there is no linux installer package. But that's me - the first time I went to open an old log in eehack I brought the datalog window up and habitually pressed ctrl+o only to find there are no accelerator keys.

i think what might be happening on first glance is that when opening that file via windows, it messed with the 'start in' path and no longer gets the definition file, then freaks out and crashes. it's crashing when loading the definition not the actual log.
