when I started TC this morning, I wasn't able to use "Search For" and "Rename multiple files" anymore - the program just seemed to be hanging.
I started testing a bit and found out that the modal dialogs opening when clicking "Search For" did actually open, but outside of the visible screen (I am using Vista and I could see the shadow of the dialog at the edge of the screen). Sometimes, this also happens with other applications, but at least, these can be brought back into the visible area of the screen, by clicking "move" in the task bar and using the cursor keys, which is not possible for the modal dialogs in TC.
I resolved the problem by deleting the sections [1680x1050 (10x20)], [1280x1024 (10x20)] and [1920x1200 (10x20)] in "wincmd.ini" (at that moment, I was using two monitors, the primary 1680x1050 stood left of the secondary 1920x1200). I'm sorry I don't know how these sections got messed up in the first place, but I did not change the wincmd.ini manually before this had happened. However, I change my monitors a lot, so this might probably be related to the problem. I don't use any special monitor management software like UltraMon.
Perhaps TC could assure that the position of the modal dialog is in the visible screen area before opening it?
These are the sections I deleted in wincmd.ini:
