Hi.

What exactly happened?

- Did rc1 work and you upgraded to rc2 which never worked?
- Did you upgrade to rc2, worked for a while and now it doesn't work?

RC2 works fine on my pc. Perhaps in your PC something got corrupted. You might try removing RC completely (also any folders that may exist under your user profile \ AppData\Local or AppData\Roaming).

So romcenter.exe appears in taskmanager for 1 second and then disappears, correct?

What happens if you go to "AppData\Local", "AppData\Roaming" and "My Documents", rename the RomCenter folder (if it exists) to RomCenter1 and then execute rc2? Does it work?
