AppStudio 8.5 released!

@Pawel2420 - could you try uninstalling and reinstalling, as above?

I uninstalled and reinstalled the program. Nothing appears after selecting tools-> preferences, help-> about

Is there anything in the log?

Thank you!

This appears to be a bug in one of the underlying libraries used by Python - it doesn’t handle Polish properly. We’re digging into this further.

Does the problem go away if you change your computer’s locale?

AppStudio does not start.

We’re working on it. In the meantime, you can go back to 8.4.1 (Windows):

When installing the second language in Win 10, AppStudio 8.5.0.1 does not start. Uninstalling and installing AppStudio changes nothing. For one language, the program works.

Thanks for everyone’s help. We just uploaded 8.5.1 - it should fix the problem with the About and Preferences screens not showing.

The underlying problem was a disagreement between two deeply embedded libraries being maintained by different groups, which caused a date function not to work. We worked around it. Hopefully, they sort the mess out some day.

Just reply to your notification.thanks for fixing the pref n about.
