Rendering engine crash

[Terry K]

The settings are not accessed from the main app screen. Right click on the systray icon and select Settings. It's the third from the left in the screen shot below:

Thank you!!! I didn't realise that the right click had to be in the System Tray after app had been launched - I was trying to right click on the icon in the task bar. Most grateful, because it's all working now.

Here is a possible solution for this bug
You need to Change in the settings
General
The grah Mode fromm OpenGL dynamic to Open GL Software

Where/how do you do this? I am having the same issue in Win 10.

Mine crashes before I can get to any settings in the program.

Read two posts up. You don't even need/want to open the program to change the setting in question.

With latest MyDrive Connect 4.4.0.5040 the same issue is still hounting. But when the Rendering engine crashes, there is no way to access settings page and change graphics mode!

Don't open the app. Use the icon in the systray in the lower right of the screen to change settings.
That said, there seems to be some worldwide outage of the server right now, so it's not working.

I did the following:

1. Started the application (which fails)
2. Now the Mydrive icon is shown on the systray; I selected keep on systray and closed the app
3. Click app with right side button, see picture

No settings available!
Is there a command line solution or something?

Find settings
It's on the Tomtom icon which is on the right next to the computer clock.

There is no icons on the right side of the clock in Windows 11! ???

Is if you click on the little arrow. ?

Because of a wide screen I keep my Systray in the left margin. When you open the Systray right click on the TomTom icon, the click on Settings.

Nope. There was originally MiDrive icon on Desctop (with a little arrow). I can create a shortcut (with a tic mark) to the desctop and add it to taskbar (in the picture). None of them has the setting wheel. Properties window is another thing, not having the option needed.

OK, now I found it! Whe I tried to start MyDrive, its icon appeared on systray area and there I can select Settings!
Thanks a lot everybody!

All three of your regular moderators are looking backwards at their 70th birthdays, I think!

Glad it helped.
