Compiling problems

Post by NancyM » Fri Sep 09, 2016 9:35 pm

So, got my huge script ready to release and went to compile it and got a blue screen of death. Tried again and this time it kicked off my anti-virus software and gave me this error. My script is pretty big. 5 include files, loads of images and some external files. Any thing I should know?

Your Antivurus software must be blocking UPX. Either:

1. Whitelist upx.exe - it's in the Macro Scheduler 14 program folder

Or

2. Delete or rename it so that the compiler doesn't use it - rename upx.exe to upx.bak or somesuch. This will prevent your scripts from being compressed but it will mean your AV tool won't get upset about it.
