ADE doesn't want open

[francefournierav]

I used ADE on my computer (windows 7).  And this morning it doesn't want to open.  When I click on the icon, I have this message : ADE stop working, windows search to find trouble....

I redownload the program and it doesn't work again..

Last week I didn't have this problem.  Now I can't read my stuff on ADE.  What can I do ?

Thank you.

There are lots of bugs in ADE2.0 (and 2.0.1).  Some change may have stirred one of them.

Try replacing ADE2.0 with the older but more reliable v1.7.2.

(You can have them both installed at once if you like.)

Version 1.7.2, it is a little difficult to find, available on Adobe site for Windows and for Mac.

The forum software is sometimes corrupting the link above.  There shouldn't be a blank in 'editio ns.html'.  The following redirects to the same page: http://tinyurl.com/diged172

Some people have found ADE trying to upgrade automatically. 

It appears (not 100% sure) that if you install ADE2.0 as a new install (not as an upgrade) that your 1.7.2 will continue to run.

Probably best to say no if 2.0.x installation asks if you want to migrate your library.
