MakeMKV fails to start since 1.15.3

Hi,
MakeMKV 1.15.3 failed to start, so tried new version 1.15.4. I only get a popup window with the title "MakeMKV BETA popup" and the text "Application failed to initialize". Reinstall of MakeMKV 1.15.2 works and is running.
I have a registered version of MakeMKV.
Regards
Walter

Knowing the operating system you're trying this on would help. Then, if there are any messages in the OS logs about the failure to start, please post those.

I found no logs in the Event Log of Windows.

I am enabled debug log in version 1.15.2 and then installed 1.15.4. The only line in the debug log is:

Version 1.15.2 logs these messages if the program is only started and then closed:

Hi everybody,
I'm also facing this issue. On every start I get a popup that says:
Application failed to initialize
NO_ANSWER_FROM_MAKEMKVCON
Today I tried again with 1.16.3, but still the same issue. 1.14.5 is the last version I got run on my computer. I can't find logs for this. No errors seen while compiling and also no errors while installing. I also had the same issues using the snap-version from the "app store".
My system OS is a ZorinOS (Ubuntu / Debian based).
Any ideas how to fix? Some said it works after reinstalling, but after reinstalling MakeMKV and system (for other reasons) the only chance for me to use the software is at version 1.14.5...
regards

Hi,
do you a RAM disc? This was the problem for my installation. I am using Windows 10 (20H2).
After changing the temporary directory (Environment Variable TMP and TEMP) to SSD, it worked again.
A recent update of the RAM disc also solved the problem for me.

I had removed an F: drive and there were env variables stored there. Resetting the env variables did the trick.

Hi again,
I just removed the installed files of the MakeMKV installation
Code: Select all
sudo rm -r /usr/lib/libmakemkv.so.1 /usr/bin/makemkvcon /usr/bin/makemkv /usr/share/applications/makemkv.desktop /usr/share/MakeMKV
and now I tried to install via Snap.
I got the version 1.16.1 and seems like it works! (The program starts...)
regards
