Brian Discussion Brian Pothier - 2013-03-07 Uninstalled 1.0.6.2228 Installed 1.1.0.2515 using installer and it started with no error. Uninstalled 1.1.0.2515 Installed 1.0.6.2228 and it again had instance already running error. It appears that the issue is fixed in at least the 1.1.0.2515 build... The immediate difference I see is that the 1.0.6.2228 build's Greenshot.exe.config contains: supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku="client" But the 1.1.0.2515 contains: supportedRuntime version="v4.0" Unfortunately, editing the 1.06 config or even copying in the 1.1.0 config file, does not resolve the already running error. Hope this helps, Brian If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the
