I always start SONAR first rather than opening projects at the OS level. It was my understanding that in prior versions of Windows:
- The repersonalization function ran when opening SONAR while holding the SHIFT key.
- The safe mode was engaged when opening a project while holding the SHIFT key.
It appears with Win10, SONAR must be opened first or the repersonalization function runs regardless. Both X3 and the new SONAR fail the same way.
You are absolutely correct, Steve! it opened in safe mode if I had sonar open first before clicking on the project with shift held to open it.
the last time I had to open a file in safe mode, I did it from the OS level, but that was probably quite a while ago!
thanks
