POIDE freezing

[Akko]

I am not sure if this is a bug or just caused by my work environment. Anyhow:

Pelles C 12.00.2 IDE freezes sporadically and I have to kill its process via the task manager.
This happens particularly often when I am accessing files on a USB drive. My OS is Windows 11.
It is a real pain because work is lost.

Pelles C 11.0 did not have this problem.

poide.exe make backup files under profile.

Like C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Local\Temp

Hi Akko,

My OS is Windows 11

Could you provide more details? Is it Win11 2022 H2 or 2023 H2 or 2024 H2?

Windows 11 Home
Version 24H2
Build 26100.3194

Hi Akko,

To fix the compilation issue on Win11 2024 H2, could you try the patches mentioned in this thread?

Thanks a lot, Vortex !!
I did the patching and everything seems smooth. My "bug" appeared sporadically so I'll continue being extra careful. But way better now! :-)

Wellll ... when I start the debugger, poide crashes regularly after a few seconds ...

No any issues here with Pelles debugger. Not easy to make comments at this point.

H Akko,

Wellll ... when I start the debugger, poide crashes regularly after a few seconds ...

The symptoms you describe are different than anyone else has reported with Win 24H2.

The typical suggestions in your case start with disabling all optimizations and trying that way.
If that does not help then the typical next step if to try disabling all Add-ins.
The next step would be to re-install PelleC which is fairly safe - no work product is lost.

More details would help the forum help you.  When Pelle C hangs is it consuming cpu, or like infinite loop, or just dead.  Does the debugger crash for other programs you have or just one in particular?
Things like that can help understanding.  What was done to the system just before this started.

Anyway just some thoughts on how to proceed,
