Thanks for the tips. I found out that Windows Defender on Win 10 has a new Ransomware switch that when turned on disables all folder access to all the apps. As a result SHGetSpecialFolderLocation type calls start failing. The problem was I have never encountered a failure of this function and its wr...

I have a Delphi 2007 application protected by MadExcept. It's running without any problem on Windows 10 systems. Only one customer who was using the application successfully started getting access violation this week. The MadExcept dump shows this: main thread ($1e24): 0040477f +00f test.exe System ...

Thanks. But is my interpretation correct that it's a Virtual Tree problem? Sometimes problem somewhere else shows up in something else and I don't want to spend the effort in the wrong direction.

Delphi 2007, MadExcept 3.0o: It's most likely a bug in VirtualTrees component (old version) that I'm using. Any ideas how to debug and fix this? exception message : Access violation at address 00618363 in module 'myprogram.exe'. Read of address 00000288. thread $848 (TWorkerThread): 00618363 +ef myp...

Thanks for the speedy reply! Yes, it does display it correctly.

I'm still using Delphi 2007 and MadExcept 3 (commercial). I forgot how to use the key that I got originally. I assume that the key file is used in the same folder as the installer. But how to verify if MadExcept commercial installed successfully? Is there an about box to verify?

Thanks.

OK. Success at last! When I created a new project and added the original units to it, it worked with MadExcept. So it turned out once again of the configuration mess up of XE4. This is the Nth time I'm seeing such problems. I had problems with versioninfo not working, manifest inclusion not working ...

But I have deliberately created a problem in the main form itself and that itself is showing normal Access Violation. The actual problem I want to diagnose and send to component developer has taken a back seat because I can't even get MadExcept to work with my own created problem. I think it has som...

Giving you the project won't help because it needs the component too. Can I give a compiled EXE to you with MadExcept linked in that is supposed to work? Then you can see how it doesn't bring up madexcept instead of access violation? If yes, please tell me which email to send it to. I will zip it up...

Creating a new project works fine. But not with the project I'm compiling. Actually, it's just a sample project for a third party component that is giving access violation and I want to see what MadExcept shows. I tried to compare the CBproj files but found nothing. If you want, I can email you the ...

But I am testing in Debug mode. I have run time dynamic library switched off in packages and also in linker. But still it doesn't bring up the MadExcept dialog.

I have used and licensed MadExcept before (v3). Today, for the first time I want to use it on a C Builder XE4 project. But it doesn't work. Here is what I did: 1) Installed MadExcept 4 (unchecked Kernel, etc in the installer and only installed MadExcept4). 2) Restarted C ++ Builder XE4 and the proje...
