  Oddly enough, it seems to be fixed now that I've re-enabled the start page to come up when I start up Construct 2.

  Wanted to post that update in case it helps anyone else in the future, or helps Ashley figure out what the issue is.

  Thanks for the suggestions, all.

  Unfortunately, I already have the "best performance" icon chaching selected, and my PC is already set to "Balance" power mode. Following the steps in chadorireborn's post, I still crash exactly 60 seconds after boot up.

  Do you have autobackup set to run every 1 minute or something? I can't think of anything else that it would start doing after 60 seconds that could go wrong.

  No, I have already disabled autobackup, autosave, and have update checks set to "never." Furthermore, this crash will occur even if I sit at a blank editor screen with no project loaded, so it should be completely unrelated to any project file.

  Any other ideas are welcome!

  Problem Description

  On my machine, the Construct 2 editor crashes exactly 1 minute after it starts up. It didn't used to do this, but now it does every time I launch, without fail.

  I've tried running as administrator, uninstalling and reinstalling, not loading a project and just sitting at a blank editor, turning off my anti-virus and firewall, disabling auto updates and auto saves. Nothing seems to help.

  Steps to Reproduce Bug

  • Launch Construct 2 executable
  • Wait for editor to load and appear
  • Wait 60 seconds

  Observed Result

  Construct 2 becomes completely unresponsive and will not recover from this state.

  Expected Result

  Construct 2 does not crash.

  Operating System and Service Pack

  Windows 7 Professional 64 bit, Service Pack 1

  Construct 2 Version ID

  233

  Please note that I am unable to attach a capx, as per the forum rules. Perhaps it's a permissions issue with my account. In any case, this bug should be easily reproduced.

  Problem Description

  Keyboard On Key Pressed events don't register keystrokes if a textbox currently has focus. This is true for most keys--RETURN and a few others are exceptions.

  Steps to Reproduce Bug

  • Add a text box to your layout
  • Create an On Key Pressed event to do something obvious, like end the application.
  • Run your app and observe that the key detection works.
  • Run your app again, give the textbox focus, and observe that the key detection no longer works.

  Observed Result

  If a textbox has focus, the On Key Pressed event doesn't register.

  Expected Result

  The On Key Pressed event should register, regardless of what element currently has focus. I'm making a chat where pressing the up arrow key will recall the previous message sent. With this bug, this behavior is impossible.

  Affected Browsers

  • Chrome: YES
  • FireFox: Untested
  • Internet Explorer: Untested

  Operating System and Service Pack

  Windows 7 64 bit
