Hi,
DOpus prompted me to auto-update to version 11.7 about 30 minutes ago. After the download finished, DOpus immediately crashed and has since crashed within 15 seconds of every restart.
I've attached a screenshot of the error message that is displayed. If you provide me with an email address, I can also send a zip of mini-dumps.
Kind regards,
Janko
There was a bug in the auto-updater in 11.5.x beta versions, and 11.6 itself for those who downloaded it within about a day of release.
If you're on a version with the auto-updater bug, please download and install the update via our downloads page.
I have the exact same problem.
Please help. 
The solution is already in my reply above.
Sorry Leo.
I saw it after I posted.
I got it working.
Thanks.
Looks like I have to do this on my other computers too.
Just a question...
Is there an option to not put an icon on the Desktop?
I don't need it. I just double click the Desktop.
No. This request/question appears every few months.
It turns out that it is easier for users to delete one shortcut than for GP Software to persuade the people who write the installer not to foist this shortcut on us.
Sort of makes sense, after all, why run around rewriting installers when there are more important things to do?

That probably was the problem. I fixed it (before you posted your reply) by deinstalling Dopus and reinstalling with an old 11.0 installer I still had around. The update from 11.0 to 11.7 worked flawlessly.
Thanks for the reply, anyway!

Do what I do. Right click the desktop icon and select properties then mark it as hidden. Next time Opus updates it will auto hide.

Sorry to take this thread sideways, lol.
But I thought it is time to know why.
Neat. But I assume that it still occupies desktop space.
I cant install 11.7 on a clean Windows 8.1 Pro 64-Bit system:
there are serveral crashes during installation cant remember the messages in german language...

First thing to check: Ensure the installer's digital signature is correct, in case it wasn't fully downloaded.
Other things to check: Problems installing Opus.
If none of those solve the problem, we will need to know the error messages and any other details you can provide.
Still got crashes during install DOpus 11.7 (german) on a clean Windows 8.1 Pro 64-Bit (german)
Here is the crash log:

Are you using anything that modifies the start menu, taskbar, or similar?
StartIsBack!
And what happens if you don't use it? 
I remove StartIsBack! - but i got still the app crashes..
Thank you for trying that.
Please try downloading and installing vcredist_x86.exe from Microsoft, here: microsoft.com/en-gb/download ... x?id=40784
[Edit: It's always vcredist_x86.exe, even for 64-bit machines.]
That should update the MSVCR120.dll file which the details above indicate the crash is happening within. I hope updating that will mean the crash no longer happens.
We have also made a change to eliminate the dependency on this DLL from future versions.
Thanks Leo for your help!
It seems to be working now but i need to install the vcredist_x86.exe on Windows 8.1 64-Bit with DOpus 11.7 64-Bit
First i tried the vcredist_x64.exe - this does NOT work!
