Install Issues

Greetings,


I have installed the latest version of AC.  Attached is a picture of my settings.   When i try to save, I get 3 popups, one after another:


a. Logging TCP Port must be a number

b. Offset hertz must be a number

c. Flrig port must be a number


All of those three items are greyed out as you can see in the picture, since I don't want to use those features.  So ungreyed the areas on the setup screen, set 0 for all three and then greyed them out again and hit save.


I was working with a friend over the phone and we followed the same steps.  His set up worked perfectly.  He didn't get the 3 items above and can view the settings without an exception error message.  By the way I am using Win 10 Enterprise.


Then I go to look at the settings screen again and I get an unhandled exception message (Attached).  When I clear the message all of my settings have been erased.


So I am stuck.


What I want is to be able to use VARA FM with no rig control, no logging, no QSO record, etc.  Just very basic operation.


Attached is the Error Message the I get when clicking on Settings/RIG Control and VAA Configurations.

The error message says "Could not find file".  What file(s) is it looking for? The text detail of the error message is provided below, as I couldn't add the file.

************** JIT Debugging **************

To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this

application or computer (machine.config) must have the

jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.

The application must also be compiled with debugging

enabled.

For example:

<configuration>

<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />

</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception

will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer

rather than be handled by this dialog box.
