Blank screeen on Windows 10 startup (9.51, x64)

Post by *janelznic »

Hello, when I starting Total Commander version 9.51 (x64) on Windows 10 (x64), I see two blank windows (app skeleton window and splash modal). This two blank two windows cannot be closed and application is frozen. I must use win task manager to kill the process. Please help me.
  • Removing wincmd.ini file doesn't work
  • Running the application as admin/ordinary user doesn't help
  • Reinstall the app doesn't help
  • It's licensed version (I paid for it sometime ago)
  • Sometime for every 5th attempt application starts correctly but I can't browse folders with Enter key, use rightclick to open the context menus in panels, FTP list and do almost anything else.
I cannot post screenshot because this forum sying to me "Your message contains the following unsupported characters"

Thanks.

I guess Total Commander is not the only program which behaves strange on your system.
Start Windows in safe mode and then try TC.
Windows 11 Home x64 Version 23H2 (OS Build 22631.3296)
TC 11.03 x64 / x86
Everything 1.5.0.1371a (x64), Everything Toolbar 1.3.2, Listary Pro 6.3.0.69

Do you start TC from a desktop shortcut icon? Maybe the compatability setting for the shortcut is wrong. What happens if you open Windows Explorer and start TC directly by doubleclicking on totalcmd64.exe?

I'm having a similar issue
the only temporary solution that I found was installing the older version of TC and hoping the new one will be fine

1. Which older version works for you?
2. Which Windows 10 version do you use?

Try a fresh Windows installation. But most likely it's a hardware problem with your HDD.
