Version 4.2 doesn't start

[IIINiemeyerIII]

Version 4.2 doesn't start on my machine. It shows up in Task Manager but closes/crashes after a few seconds.
Version 4.1 works without problems.

Windows 11, Nvidia driver 551.23

Getting same problem. 4.1 starts fine, but 4.2 refuses.

I tried various things but can't reproduce this issue on my setup, so I'm not really sure what's causing it. Please try replacing the exe with this one and see if that fixes it.

I have replaced the exe with the one you linked and now it works!

Thanks! I honestly have no clue what the root cause of this issue actually is, I just worked around it by ignoring any errors that occur while querying the monitor bit depth... Is there anything "weird" about your setup or connected display(s) that you can think of? Does the crash maybe not happen when you disconnect some displays?

[IIINiemeyerIII]

My monitors are:

1. Dell S2721DGF (connected via DisplayPort)
2. HP Compaq LA2205wg (connected via DVI)
   Both monitors are connected to a GTX 1080.

With the second monitor disconnected, it does not crash (with the release v4.2 exe). Hope this helps you!

When I connect the second monitor via DisplayPort, it works again.

So:
Only second monitor via DVI - doesn't work
Only second monitor via DisplayPort - does work
