I have solved my problem.

I'm glad to hear it.

However, it might help others in the future if you explained what was causing the problem, and how you solved it...

I installed it to win10 operating system where it does fine then copyed ide to win7 the same as copiler settings but it does not work again.
After this i have instelled 12.0.0 version ide where it does work properly atferwards I installed 14.0.0 15.0.0 and the last version whereby contiounisly it fine works.
It was worth the invested effort.

I have a similar error with my installation. But I still cannot solve it.
I'm using Windows 11 Pro, (22000.856 version)
I have upgraded to CodeLite 16.0.0 using the installation programa (codelite-amd64-16.0.0.exe). At this point the program closes after less than a second.
Then I installed 16.1.0 with same result.
Finally with 16.2.0 it works, but now it is impossible to configure the build settings.

I have installed TDM-GCC-64 (using tdm-gcc-10.3.0.exe) which was the best opcion since CodeLite 9 or about.
I also have installed MinGW with mingw-get-setup.exe.

Both of them are detected by the wizard but it doesn't update the configuration.

Also I have tried "Settings -> build settings -> compilers -> add an existing compiler", and "scan for compilers". In both cases the IDE closes inmediatelly after selecting the compilers.

I believe that the problem is something related to Windows version, but I have tried to remove permisions to the folders, copy the "build_settings.xml" file from previous version, installing in "c:\" instead of "program files", and nothing works.

Any help will be really wellcome.
Thx a lot.

I solved the problem.

As I suspected, the problem was related to windows environment. The user I was using contained characters from the extended set (í, ó, etc.).

I have created a new user with ony basic characters and now it works. I have experienced this kind of problem with projects, when I created them under "my documents", as the folder have this characters, but now it also affect to the application itself.

Many thx for creating this tool.
