Windows 11 exporting to LiveDrive directories (v0.9.94)

Featured Replies

I've mentioned this one before, where if you export a remote settings, to a OneDrive directory (Microsoft cloud service, that sync's a directory to the cloud and makes it available across any device that you are logged in with), it closes the app.  With the new error checking in this version (nice) and it throws an error below.  I hope that is as useful as it capturing it.  

I have tried this on a very early version on a Mac (well when the app worked on that mac), and didn't have any issues.    On the windows machine the directory is located in I think the stock location for windows under c:\users\name\OneDrive  (where name = logged in users name).  In all attempts, a zero length file is written (or overwritten if it already exists after a prompt to confirm).  I'll do some more testing and post with any further findings, now we have a way to get errors to see if its the same.

Saving to a regular non cloud sync'd (by OneDrive) works fine.

So repeated the test just loaded the app, checked where the logs where, and then did the export.

Get this from the new crash system (same I think as before).

and attached is today's logs.

If I do this to any other directory (not in the sync) or even another drive its fine.

flirc20230824.log

 

Tried this again, but watching the log file, the specific error line to check is:
09:19:18 <4> #ExceptionHandler C:\buildkite-agent\builds\Flirc-Windows-2\flirc-inc\remote-application\desktop\windows\SkipApp\App.xaml.cs:233 Exception caught: No such interface supported

Hope that helps

@jason  Hadn't heard anything, so today I randomly unpacked the remotes from their boxes and tried the current beta (0.9.954), and export works, it does what it should, produces a have a file for the remote, and the app doesn't crash anymore.

Hopefully this was a planned changed, but seeing things have been quite here, I don't for sure if this is intentional fix or accidental, or even something MS fixed!

But providing feedback, just so you are aware something has changed for the better.
