Crash while using an USB stick (Windows)

Post by slowtiger »

This week at school I found the following behaviour:

TVP (v10) started and worked normally, but when I tried to open anything I got a Windows error message "please insert a medium into drive F" which didn't go away. I had to kill TVP and tried anything, rebooting the machine etc, but that message persisted. I asked the student working last on that machine before, and yes, I was right, she had worked from a TVP file on a USB stick and had saved directly onto it.

I created a fresh configuration, after which TVP behaved normally again.

I think this shouldn't happen.

TVP 10 Debut on Windows 7 Professional.
TVP 10.0.18 and 11.0 MacPro Quadcore 3GHz 16GB OS 10.6.8 Quicktime 7.6.6
TVP 11.0 and 11.7 MacPro 12core 3GHz 32GB OS 10.11 Quicktime 10.7.3
TVP 11.7 Mac Mini M2pro 32GB OS 13.5

maybe can you try to change the file requester, rather than deleting the whole config.
strange anyway ...
