First Notation software run stalls on file load on Windows 7 Professions
I am having the same problem reported earlier in the thread entitled "First Notation software run stalls on file load" on my new Dell Inspiron 660 running an OEM install of Windows 7 Professional 64-bit.
That is, the first time I attempt to open a Composer file after booting my PC the program stalls. Here is a more complete bug report (borrowing from the earlier bug report): 1. Notation Composer 2.6.3 installed on Windows 7 Professional 64-bit and rebooted. 2. I started Composer and tried to open a file using File/Open or by choosing one from the recent files in the open page, or by double-clicking a .not or .mid file. 3. Composer reports "Engraving the score..." and hangs. The only way to terminate Composer is by ending the process in Windows Task Manager. 4. I repeat step 2 and all works fine, with the file opening immediately using any method. One difference from the earlier report is that I have no pcmmediasharing process running, so I cannot disable it in msconfig. This is just an annoyance, but it would be nice to fix it if possible. Thanks. |

Hi,
This is indeed being fixed for the next release, but in the meantime we have a "do it yourself" fix :) Sometimes the font used by Notation Software products for the music symbols does not get properly installed in the c:\windows\fonts folder, and causes the issue. You'll need to do the following:
