I was on the phone with Charles Leo at ME Labs this past week, discussing particulars for a long-overdue Nuts and Volts article. He casually mentioned he was working on another PBP update that will cover all the PIC 8-bit parts that MPLABX v5.35 covers. No release date, and no other particulars. Don't tell him I told you so.

Hi, Mpgmike,

just a question about MPLABX 5.35 : Here ( win 10 up to date ) when I close it ... it automatically re-opens !!!

so, I had to turn back to V 5.30 ... to get something usable.

Would you have any idea about that strange behaviour ???

about PBP updates ... may be I'll see them before I can't program any more ... may be !!!

for the spelling corrector Charles was to update, I think we must forget it ... last version was MPLABX 2.35 compatible ... if I'm right ... :rolleyes:

sooooo, just wait and see ...:p

I use MPLABX v5.35 all the time. I downloaded & immediately uninstalled v5.40 (more bugs than an Alaskan summer). I dabbled with v5.45 here and there, and am now trying to use 5.50 more. Still, I refuse to get rid of my precious and beloved v5.35. Not sure what your issue is.

Alain,

I'd suggest to uninstall the MPLABX and then very carefully clean any record in the registry about MPLABX.

Try again installation of MPLABX and hopefully it won't re-open.

Win-10 does indeed reload some programs with no apparent reason. I had such an issue with Excel.

HTH,
Ioannis

I had an issue where Visual Studio would automatically start whenever I restarted the computer. I would close it and do another restart. Usually the 2nd time VS wouldn't start. I never had an issue where I close a program and it just restarts automatically. That's a new one for me.

Hi, Ioannis

Even after a thoroughful cleaning, the problem comes again ...

Working fine here requires The 5.30 Version ...

Probably a new Win10 " feature " :rolleyes:

Have a nice day

I am sorry it didn't work for you. As you say, new Win10 feature! Enjoy it!

Although not 100% close to your problem, it is nice to give it a try:
