Cathy – thanks, I have installed v368 now. I keep all prior versions of the 
installable – just in case I need to revert.

Possibly unavailability of printer – Windows does switch the printer to last 
used (I print as PDF from various docs, including web pages). But when my WiFi 
mono laser is offline, it notifies me and Windows caches the print stream. But 
I don’t know what Legacy’s start-up check for a printer is about (seems a silly 
thing to do).
In any case, only one of those freeze occasions involved the printer instance 
(I killed each with Task Manager, and looked).

I’ll see what happens. As I hinted, Legacy FT has not given me freeze or even 
slowness with my moderate sized database (few iamges, etc).

Ian,
For your information - the current release of Legacy is 9.0.0.368

There were a couple of issues with builds 361 and 362 but these have been fixed 
in 368.

Legacy checks for a printer when Legacy starts. There can be problems in 
Windows 10 if you are allowing Windows 10 to control the default printer as it 
switches to the last printer used. If that isn't available when you start 
Legacy, you can have problems. There is a setting in the Win 10 settings that 
allows you to uncheck that option.

I have a similar issue with this version (9.0.0.339,  Deluxe)  - I
_never_ have problems with Legacy, over the last 4 years. This may be
a one-off?

This has happened twice in the last couple of days – I closed Legacy
with Windows 10 Task Manager. This time, I noticed that there was a
sub-entry in Task Manager indicating a problem with a printer driver.
I was not trying to print anything from Legacy at the time. That was
not so in the previous incident, a day or two ago.

In both cases, I could not start Legacy again after killing the
instances with Task Manager – I had to restart Windows.

Windows 10 v 2020 – I am not using the latest “Feature Update, 20H2”

I just updated Legacy to the latest version and now when I try to
click on "Name List" it locks up Legacy and I have to shut down my PC
in order to clear it.  I have not been able to do anything else
because of this issue.  What do I do now?

Thanks Margaret
