Crashed on W7x64
Developer must be interested in the error : Mailing it to you.
Shame on you for offering an install (W8Clock) to all of your followers that does NOT have an uninstall. Sucks.
Thanks Vasu. I coded this and tested on my own x64 machine and worked fine. From the error it appears that the settings were allready running and tried to run them again. Or possibly allready installed and tried to install again?
f4jock: If you didn’t notice. The setup has 2 buttons, 1 clearly states Install, the other clearly states Uninstall
@Lee i ran only one instance.. will try it after a reboot anyways
I like this, I never use screen savers and I could see this being useful. Some stuff that would be cool to add would be system states, unread email messages, the option to make the background transparent but not the metro title(s)
Thanks ..
I like this clock ScreenSaver. But I get error message if I try to run W8ClockSettings configuration as a Limited User.
System.UnauthorizedAccessException Access to the path ‘C:\Windows\system32\W8ClockSettings.txt’ is denied.
Cheers, PW.
