Please could everyone having errors post the action you did for that to happen, like for example, a Left Click, Right Click , Adding to Favorites, ...I need more specifications because I have tried everything and I cant recreate the error .

Oh and try placing the latest FBA in a clean directory using a clean config and all, and report if the errors still there.

SeeYaa!

Details help.  Saying "it crashed" does not.

I'm not getting it here on XP Home, either, but I got a bug you might want to look at: when you check 'always show clones' and reopen the load game window, it begins at the bottom of the list.

excellent release by the way; makes me happy to hear pac-man, above all else, to be honest.
