Filter Forge - FF crashes with naming controllers

Active Topics Search

TheBeat Beat Posts: 165	Latest FF version / OSX 10.11.6 FF crashes when I want to enter a name for a controller (Settings) in Editor mode. Everything seems to work fine until I want to edit a name. Crash. When restarting FF, the same happens. When restarting the Mac, it works fine again for a little while and then the crashes begin again (with naming a controller). I do get the attached message when starting FF. What to do? I am hesitant to reinstall FF as I don't know if my own Filters will disappear with reinstalling. I have made a backUp of the filters. Would trashing the Preferences help? The Stone Age did not end because they ran out of stones. Niels Bohr

If the issue persists, reset the preferences and/or remove the broken ffxml file instead. Navigate to /Users/Your_User_Name/Library/Application Support/Filter Forge 8/. Recent Filters are stored in Recent.xml, preferences are stored in Preferences.xml, user-made filters are in the My Filters folder.
