HELP! demonbuddy wont open

[longboarder28]

so the title says it all. ive never had a problem with it but last night it started acting up. when i try and open it my computer tries for a second and then just stops and wont open the actual program. i have tried restarting my computer several times, i have uninstalled and reinstalled DB twice now, and im running out of ideas. any help would be AMAZING

Attach log

what do you want to see? theres no logs from today and yesterday because i cant even open db. the last log i have db still worked great, i can upload that?

 

[Tony]

is there an error window that pops?

 

[longboarder28]

absolutely nothing. my mouse turns into a blue spinning circle for a second and thats it. i do get a demonbuddy image in my notification area next to my clock, but i can never click it and as soon as i drag my mouse over it it will go away for good.

remove:
- microsoft .net framework 4 client profile
- microsoft .net framework 4 extended
- microsoft visual c++ 2010 x86 redistributable
- microsoft visual c++ 2012 x86 redistributable


restart your pc,
download the installationwizard from here
run it as administrator.
after the wizard is done, run windows update. And install all updates for .net & c++
restart

download a clean install of DB
run diablo3 and demonbuddy as administrator.

Had the same problem in multiple DB accounts.. simply opening DemonBuddy as admin was enough, no need to reinstall all the microsoft crap.
Thnx for the explain though Tony.

ive tried the admin thing. ive been using db for a little over a year now and this is the first time this has happened. ill try reinstalling the microsoft crap after work and give that a try

 

[Tony]

let me know

 

[longboarder28]

did exactly that and it worked. no time to test it yet, but i opened db and after a couple seconds it popped right up with the login screen.

thanks!
