In the instructions for the total uninstall, it is not clear what registry key to delete:
Remove the registry entry:
- Start RegEdit (Windows Start button, enter regedit)
- Find HCU\Software\NSBasic\App Studio.
- Delete it.
Are we deleting the NSBasic key or just the App Studio key? And obviously not the HCU or Software keys. I deleted the former (NSBasic key). I was going to suggest spelling out HCU, but if you’re in regedit, then you better know WTF you are doing and what HCU is.
Other than that, it installed and I was able to bring up my main project. I ran it under start in desktop and it is acting oddly. EG, it works in 8.4.2.0 and not in 8.5 beta. I will hunt this down, as it looks like a logic error - hmm.
The 8.5 beta problem I believe is the same as AppStudio 8.4.2 won't run. I think it exemplifies the reasons for never releasing two versions with the same version number, especially when the difference between them was a major installer change.
