This is great to hear. Happy Flying!

I'm willing to bet a couple of beers on the fact that the language settings in Windows have a role to play.

 

 

 

Anyone buying??

It seemed to be a windows update related...

Well, I thought my problem was solved but I tried to change the configuration and nothing changed, can you explain me with details how to change the region configuration? Thank you

If you're using Windows 7, do this:

Start -> Configuration -> Clock, Language and Region -> Change Location - and change it to the United States.

'' -> '' -> '' -> Formats - and change all decimals to dots.

Not sure if this is related There is a compatibility system problem appearing on some Windows 7 machines that are configured for Dutch and possibly some other languages. Windows text file values with "." (period) decimal seperators are wrongly intercepted by a compatibility call and converted to the wrong format even though the app will be converting it anyway and the conversion fails or weird values are fed into the app.

This probem is resolved by:

1. Uninstall the affected application, files saved by the app may be corrupt.

2. Set your Windows to UK English formats Date/Time and Number, choose Formats, English (UK) in control panel.

3. Reboot.

4. Set your preferred formats.

5. Install the application fresh.
