Let me repeat myself (i will type it in bold). We can’t help you if you don’t provide the log file. The issue template is there for a reason.

Your “bug” could be A-N-Y-T-H-I-N-G, from you failing to select the proper download format to some crazy stuff that i can’t even think of right now.

When you find the time you can open a new issue and feel in the details properly. Until then, please stop wasting our time!

I didn’t open this issue looking for help-desk support. It simply happened that I had to run your program on windows xp, but something went wrong so I thought it was a good idea to report the issue. So this could be a legit bug
the fact that you closed the issue without even verifying the bug is laughable. You just closed it pretending that the issue doesn’t exist. If this is a bug, it won’t automagically fix just because you decided to ignore it
it happened that I had to use windows xp, but it could also be buggy on other platforms (but you’re ignoring it)
I don’t use windows xp regularly. It just happened that I ran your program on windows xp, saw the bug, and decided to report it later on the same day. I haven’t posted the log because I haven’t had a second chance to run windows xp in the last days. But the bug could also affect newer windows systems

I don’t remember if I used the installer or portable version (probably portable).
