Client crash on launch (v2.7.1)

[Sovex66]

Hello,

My client crash on launch without any error message

This is what WP look in the taskbar when i launch him : http://i.imgur.com/SSZtw2p.png

Windows Anniversary (The one who broke CMD for CLI color syntax) x64
Intel® Core™ i5-4670K CPU @ 3.40GHz

Only Nvidia & Logitech service was running during try

What i actually tried :
- Remove whatpulse completely (also remaining key .. etc Sad )
- Remove WinPcap
- Ccleaner --> clean register
- Open regedit --> remove everything with search "whatpulse"
- Reboot
- Delete whatpulse.db & whatpulse.wpw & the complete folder
- Disable my antivirus
- Disable my firewall
- Install a old version (2.6.3)
- launch in admin mode
- Compatibility mode
- Install the 2.6.3 and update with your updater.exe without launching WP
- Disable my network protection
- Use my phone connection

Some note :
- I own and manage my own network
- I didn't install nothing from past 3 month execpt CCleaner to try to repair this issue
- Still work on my laptop with the same update
- WinPcap is not install i don't use network stats


I'm really out of ideas why this happen, any help is welcome

Thanks.

Hi,

Does it actually crash, or does it look like the screenshot you posted? If so, that just means it's not logged in and not counting. Click the icon to login.

Hi smitmartjin,

i have recorded what happen when my PC launch

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4nsOd1xSchg

The main screen popup for like 3sec, the W icon on the taskbar with red alert (the screen i linked on the main post) stay for 5 more second and all vanish without any error message

EDIT : When i launch Wp after the boot, the exact same thing happen

You previously said that you disabled your antivirus, it that still the case in the video? If the log you posted is the only thing it logs, there's no reason why it would crash, so I'm thinking once the keyhooks install (+- 10 seconds after launch) - something thinks the client is being malicious and shuts it down.

Also, why are you installing an old client? (2.6.3 and not 2.7.1?)

On the video my antivirus was ON, but everything disabled the error is the same, and the log remain the same

I'm not installing a old client, but that one of my multiple attempt to fix this issue

Well, something seems to be killing it - pretty much everything the client can do to crash itself will be logged in the app.log, which has nothing, according to the information you've provided so far.

Exit all background applications and try each time to see which one is the culprit.
