[FIXED] v1.99.53.24778 installation crash
« on: August 03, 2026, 07:31:02 AM »
Hi! FYI I try to install WACUP v1.99.53.24778  on my new (old) Surface Go 1 with Windows 11. Installer not involved any UAC dialog, then I start full install and in middle installer just close. In Program Files (x86) i can see new folder and few libs, but only part of them...

v1.99.52.24626 installer involved UAC and install normally and works... however I can't run any built in visualizations however it play music :D

It's not something I've seen so I'll have to see if I can replicate the installer crashing later today as you're now the second person that's let me know something isn't right.

I've tentatively already figured out the cause before I had to go out this morning but I need to do a bit more testing along the with checking out a few other things raised before I put up what should be a fixed installer later today.

Thanks for the confirmation that it's back to working ok again for you (I assume it'll help for the others though I've not had confirmation from them yet). Was an oversight as part of some changes made to reduce the code size of a few of the dlls whilst also reducing the code complexity with loading things but it didn't behave correctly during some new / incomplete updates. Main thing is that it's now been resolved.
