We have confirmed EmEditor works with Windows 10

/in /by

We have tested the current latest version of EmEditor (v15.1.7 or later) on Windows 10 Insider Preview, and confirmed EmEditor works with Windows 10. However,

– The Cascade, Tile Horizontally, and Tile Vertically commands
– The Compare and Synchronize commands

might not work as expected if you use the new Task View feature of Windows 10 to create multiple virtual desktops, and multiple EmEditor group windows exist separately over different virtual desktops. EmEditor will behave as if all of EmEditor group windows existed in the same virtual desktop. For example, when there are two EmEditor group windows which exist at different virtual desktops, if you select the Tile Horizontally command, only one EmEditor group window appears on the upper half of the current virtual desktop while the other EmEditor group window appears on the lower half of the other virtual desktop. We are planning to address this issue in future versions of EmEditor.

Important: The digital signature of the installer was renewed. For this reason, after you download, there might be a message, “… is not commonly downloaded and could harm your computer.” When you try to run the installer, there might be a message, “Windows protected your PC. Windows SmartScreen prevented an unrecognized app from starting. Running this app might put your PC at risk.”, but clicking the “More info”, and click the “Run anyway” will install the program. This is due to our new digital certificate, which is not registered in the Microsoft database. It is safe to install, and there is no harm to your PC. We anticipate that the warning message will go away once this distribution is widespread.

This version is available free if you have a lifetime license or if your maintenance plan is valid as of June 10, 2015. Your registration keys might be found in the Emurasoft Customer Center. The registration key for v15 is the same as the key for v14.

Possible Path environment variable corruption by EmEditor v15.1.1

/in /by

If you have installed EmEditor v15.1.1 as the entire machine install (Selecting “Everybody (all users)” in the Installation Type during the install), and if the system “Path” environment variable is 1,000 characters long or longer, the system “Path” variable might have become corrupted (or erased) during the install.

The problem could happen only if you use the v15.1.1 installer, and NOT by any other versions of installers. The problem could happen only if your Path environment is longer than 1,000 character long.

To check your “Path” variable, please go to Control Panel, System Properties, Advanced system settings, click the Environment Variables button, and scroll down the System variables list box to find the “Path” variable.  The “Path” variable should contain several application paths combined with semicolons (;).  In the Registry, the “Path” variable is stored at:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment

If this variable contains only the EmEditor path (C:\Program Files\EmEditor), the “Path” variable has been corrupted, and the installer erased the previous “Path” variable.

If this happens to your system, your original Path variable can be found at one of the following keys:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM
   \ControlSet001
   \ControlSet002
   \Clone

If you find a good “Path” variable, you can copy and paste to the current “Path” variable.

If you still can’t find the old good original path, the following article might be able to help you.

http://superuser.com/questions/265532/how-to-extract-environment-variables-from-system-restore-point-windows-7-64-bit

The new installer of EmEditor (v15.1.2) has fixed the bug, but once you install v15.1.1, installing v15.1.2 alone will not help you fix the Path variable.
We sincerely apologize for any inconveniences if this has affected your system.
