Can no longer start Cobian

Post by Jbac03 »

Hello
I've been using Cobian Backup 11.2.0.582 for some time on my PC but I now have a blocking issue.
I have the 3 processes running (Interface, Application and VSC requester). When I right click on "open" on the Cobian icon in the notification area, the interface icon (fans) appears on the task bar but when I click on it, the icon disappears, the window does not open, but the interface process is still here. When I start from the start menu, Cobian mentions "closing other instances of UI" then "welcome to Cobian 11" and nothing happens. No information in the log file. I've re-installed, same problem.
Any hint?
Thanks!

Are you running with several monitors? There is another post with a similar problem down here. Does deleting the oni file as indicated there solve the issue?

Thank you for the quick response!
I indeed have 2 monitors. After some search on issues linked with multiple monitors, I've removed the file C:\Program Files (x86)\Cobian Backup 11\Settings\<your user name>\interface positions.ini and Cobian Backup started nicely!
Thank you very much!

I will be adding an option in version 2 which should fix this kind of issues.
