Paused HUD, DriveHud crashed, now it crashes on launch.

Hi, I click the stop/pause HUD button on DriveHud 2 and the app crashed. Now, when starting DriveHud, I am prompted with the following error and clicking OK just closes DriveHud:

I’ve tried reinstalling DriveHud, but the error still shows up and the app still closes. How can I fix this?

You’ll get a quicker response from the bottom of the Support Page.

Am I supposed to get a confirmation email that my ticket has been received? I’m pretty sure I’ve sent one already, but I never received any confirmation email.

[bjohnson]

Using the support page, I have always received an automated response in the same day.  Support normally has contacted me within 24 hours with an actual response.

Just as a shot, you might want to download the newest version.  I normally install over the old version.  In a couple of cases, when I have back dated to an older version, I had to uninstalled the old version first.  It has always picked up my old database without a problem.

DriveHUD 2.x Releases

First thing I did was uninstall everything, redownload it, then reinstall it. That didn’t work. I even tried uninstalling it and searching for every mention of DriveHud in the registry, but that still didn’t help.

I guess my only hope is for support to find the issue.

If you still haven’t received a reply, try the link below.  FreakDaddy is the founder of DriveHud and I always get quick responses from him.

Sorry for the delay, I prompt our dev team about this.
