Not a valid win32 application

Hello,

I have been running Iron for quite a few versions now, but since installing the newest one I can't get it to run (not a valid win32 application). I can use the portable version, but I'd prefer to use the installer version.

I've tried uninstalling and removing any folders which appear to have something to do with Iron, but it doesn't help.

I use XP Sp3 Home Edition and as I said, the portable version works fine, but I prefer the installer version. I'd appreciate any help you may provide.

Thanks.

Elwood

No help, eh?

Oh well, I guess I'll try the installer version when a new version comes out...maybe...

probably your installer download was incomplete

Thanks for the reply.

Iron installed properly, or appeared to. I tried a couple of different downloads so I kind of doubt it was an incomplete download, but maybe so.

It was only after installing and trying to run Iron did the error message appear.

I may give it another shot in a few days or I may wait until the the next version is released.

Thanks again for your input.

is iron the only application you cant run ?

you could have problems with some security programs you use, or have malware. did you scan your system for virus / malware ?

Yes.

I've run my usual scan with AntiVir Free AntiVirus and I have Mamutu real time anti-malware and have had no alerts. I've never had an instance of malware that I know of. I see no odd processes running either in Process Explorer or Process Hacker

could you disable mamutu and try again ?

Huh, that seems to have worked. I guess Iron doesn't like Mamutu very much.
