So,
I just opened FM2019 (Windows 10, 64-bit, fully updated) for the first time in in about a month and a half and whoa. . . the Welcome screen has been taken over by gremlins apparently. . . it has a totally different layout, font size, different options etc. I had no idea that this was even possible. . .I mean it's a desktop app with a perpetual license so the app doesn't have to "phone home" when I launch it , but then even further, after I opened the book that I last worked on 6 weeks ago, and for one file in the book, I am getting the following message: The file "filename.fm" is not a FM file. Framemaker can try to open the file in either Framemaker or in the file's native application. Uh, the file >>IS<< an FM file . . . I just worked on it 6 weeks ago w/out any issues. When I click on the Framemaker option, I then get a second message stating that the file can't be opened with this version of FM. . . but it's a file that I just opened 6 weeks ago. I punted and then tried the heroic open option to no avail. I know the chances of this oddity being related to the Welcome screen metamorphosis is pretty slim, but >>SOMETHING<< had to change in the app to give me two issues at once. Thoughts???? I really, really need to be able to open this file.
