This error happened to me two days ago for the first time. I was able to start MFP, log in, I saw it's working but it sticks to taskbar, there is a MFP icon but couldn't do anything else with it. Yesterday and today was allright for one instance of MFP, same error when I try to run another instance. Anything I can do to sort it out? Tried to run as administrator, didn't work out. My version of Windows doesn't install any updates without my permission so this can't be updates issues.

Thanks.

So does this happen only when you launch two or more instances of MF Pro?

No. Had that issue before even when trying to launch one instance. Helped when I set "Start with 640 x 480 resolution" for some reason. MFP launched with 640 x 480 and when closed, next time started normally with my standard resolution. But mostly when trying to launch just one - its fine.

Since few days this happens almost every time when I try to launch more instances. I was lucky today and once MPF opened second instance normally but just once, Im trying now - in vain, nothing happens.

Hi
just a thought, do you have multiple monitor screens? if you do, check if an instance is open on another screen? or projector?

Try doing this:

Navigate to this folder on your disk:

C:\Users\%username%\MarketFeeder Pro\profiles\%profile name%\

The %profile name% is the name of the settings profile which you use when MF Pro fails to come up from the system tray.

Open the file settings.ini. Locate the following lines:

MFTop=X
MFLeft=Y

Instead of X and Y insert 0:

MFTop=0
MFLeft=0

Save the file and restart MF Pro. See if this helps.
