  • Clarion won't populate my report preview queue anymore

    From speir_michael@yahoo.com@21:1/5 to All on Fri Feb 22 17:52:54 2019
    I wrote a report previewer. I've been using it for years. Works fine. Earlier today, while tweaking a report, Clarion (or something) quit populating my preview queue with .WMF files. Curiously, even older programs that haven't been recompiled have
    stopped working, too. (All stand-alone executables.) For that reason, I suspect it must be something in Windows rather than Clarion causing the problem, but I don't know. BTW, I've tried Clarion's built-in print previewer. It no longer works, either.
    However, the report can still be sent to the printer successfully if the previewer (mine or Clarion's) is not used.

    Many thanks to anyone who can help me resolve this.

    Well, I ran AdvancedSystemCare and it's working again. Couldn't say why.
