SoundSwitch crash at start: Named Pipe access denied

[iwoods2807]

Both previous crashes when the computer was simply booting up (app set to launch with boot).
I tried running the application again from within the Roaming folder but it crashed immediately (not sure why the crashlog wasn't created but was within a few minutes of the 4th June crashlog attached)

The first crash of the 31st was fixed in the 5.3.0 version.

The second crash of 4th of June is actually a new one that I'll have to investigate.

Can you give me more information about your machine ?

• How did you install SoundSwitch (as User or Admin) ?
• What your version of Windows ?
  • WIN+R > sysver

Somebody reported the same issue in Discord:

I'm getting crashes when logging in with two windows accounts at the same time, both running SoundSwitch. just thought you should know.

Note to myself

It's related to the new name piped system used to check if SoundSwitch is already running and tell the old instance to stop to let the new one start.

Problem: The right on the created named pipe is by user... I'll have to see what can be done with the Named Pipe and the Mutex to let 2 instances on different users run simultaneously.

Hi Antoine. I’m the admin running win 10. It has worked fine when I’ve logged in the last two days. The computer itself is relatively powerful but is 11 years old now and does struggle a bit with number of apps trying to load on booting up. Maybe that’s the issue? Just a resources conflict?
