Please give me some feedback if the new automatic program update worked for you. You'll get a notification for updating the application. After updating you should get another notification about updating the fix profiles. (two separate update mechanisms)[/quote]
Excellent and terrific work !! + Update system worked smoothly.
Again thanks Paul.

I want to improve the automatic installation of fixes. Until now it was not possible in 3D Fix Manager to assign a game to another game profile in nvidia driver. I experimented a little bit with Nvidia Inspector and it seems pretty simple to do that.
I created an example for Borderlands 2. This game requires assigning the game to "Alice Madness Returns" - profile (according to the fix description). For doing that I created this .nip file with Nvidia Inspector:
[code]
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<ArrayOfProfile>
<Profile>
<ProfileName>Borderlands 2</ProfileName>
<Executeables>
<string>launcher.exe</string>
</Executeables>
<Settings />
</Profile>
<Profile>
<ProfileName>Alice: Madness Returns</ProfileName>
<Executeables>
<string>borderlands2.exe</string>
<string>alicegame.exe</string>
<string>shippingpc-alicegame.exe</string>
<string>alicemadnessreturns.exe</string>
</Executeables>
<Settings />
</Profile>
</ArrayOfProfile>
[/code]
This removes borderlands2.exe from borderlands 2 profile and assigns it to Alice: Madness Returns.
I made another .nip for undoing the changes:
[code]
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<ArrayOfProfile>
<Profile>
<ProfileName>Alice: Madness Returns</ProfileName>
<Executeables>
<string>alicegame.exe</string>
<string>shippingpc-alicegame.exe</string>
<string>alicemadnessreturns.exe</string>
</Executeables>
<Settings />
</Profile>
<Profile>
<ProfileName>Borderlands 2</ProfileName>
<Executeables>
<string>launcher.exe</string>
<string>borderlands2.exe</string>
</Executeables>
<Settings />
</Profile>
</ArrayOfProfile>
[/code]
Since I do not have any knowledge about Nvidia 3D profiles I want to ask you if this method is a proper way of assigning a game to another profile or if it has any disadvantages?
Would it be ok to bundle the download of 3D Fix Manager with Nvidia Inspector? Since Nvida Inspector is open source there should not be any restrictions?

[quote="Pauldusler"][quote="NeIVIeSiS"]Thanks for developing this handy utility. I figured this is the place to report any bugs.
I just installed version 1.12, but it won't launch. So I had to revert to a previous build. This is the first time I've run into this problem, none of the earlier builds ever failed to launch.
I am on windows 10 x64. [/quote]
I've just released a new version of 3D Fix Manager (Version 1.13). Please try if this one works. If it doesn't work try to download and extract the zip file to another location on your HDD. This will create a new XML file for saving your 3D Fix Manager settings (maybe something broke here). I did only change minor things in v. 1.12 (new option in settings tab, and a bugfix for hotkeys).
[color="orange"]Version 1.13 is out![/color]
Downloading and installing of new 3D Fix Manager versions is now automated. So the next time you receive an update message this will be a 1 click solution.
Change Notes Version 1.13:
[list]
[.]New: Auto update feature for 3D Fix Manager (update process is completely automated now)[/.]
[.]New: Auto disable Nvidia Stereoscopic 3D when closing 3D Fix Manager[/.]
[/list]
[/quote]
Unfortunately, I am still having the same issue. I tried installing 1.12-1.14 on different locations in my hard drive, and on different hard drives, and all fail to launch.
The latest version that runs for me is 1.11. It's a shame, I'd like to keep up to date on your utility, as it's very handy and you update often :/

@Pauldusler: Regarding using the .nip files to change profiles automatically- I think that should work.
If the NVidia Inspector is scriptable, or you can directly use the code that writes the profiles, since it's Open Source.
They use an MIT license, which means you are free to take their code and use it as you like. The only restriction is that you have to include a Copyright reference that you did so. Add it to your license, and also to your about box.

Thanks for the information Bo3b :) I'll add a copyright reference.
I went the easy way now - importing profiles by calling nvidiaInspector.exe" "someProfile.nip" -silent. This works pretty good so far. In fix profile tab it will be possible to add custom .nip - files for installing 3D profiles. Especially old DirectX 9 helixmod fixes will benefit of this (3dmigoto already installs 3d profiles automatically)

Thanks for taking the time to troubleshoot this. Unfortunately it is not generating an error log, the program is not crashing per say, it's simply not launching. I recorded a screencast so you can see how it hangs on launch, and nothing happens (this is the same situation after version 11)

Ah ok it isn't crashing at startup at all when there is no error_log.txt :-/. What is happening in Task Manager? Is there a process "3DFixManager.exe"?
So maybe there is some imcompatiblity with .NET framework? Do you have .NET framework 4.5 and 4.5.1 installed?
Does it make any differences when you start the application without admin rights?
It's unlikely that this helps but you could try to:
[list]
[.]Go to C:\Users\"yourName"\AppData\Local\FixManager and delete all folders here[/.]
[.]Delete "Fixes" folder of the application and run the it then[/.]
[.]Disable internet connection before starting application[/.]
[/list]
Maybe someone here in forum has more experience with trouble shooting wpf startup issues?

Hi paul !
it seems there is a problem with the MINECRAFT fix.
i installed it before to install 3DFix.
it doesn't appear in 3DFix manager and badly, he worked some weeks ago, but i tried today, it doesn't work anymore, i think it's due to my system but 3Dfix could be useful to reinstall it correctly.
the fix is a little hard to put because there are a lot of things to do (see commentaries)

Hi greatxerox,
which version of minecraft is affected by this? I've seen that there are different versions of minecraft. A Steam version with story (http://store.steampowered.com/app/376870?l=german) and another version without story on https://minecraft.net/de-de/. And when I remember correctly there was a version for free? I've played minecraft only once many years ago. So I don't have any idea about this game any more.
If I find time I'll install minecraft and try the fix to know exactly what has to be done to make the fix work.
According to the comments on helixblog you have to assign a 3d profile (Max Payne 3). This is something 3D Fix Manager is able to do with the next release version.
When minecraft is not detected automatically by 3D Fix Manager then no registry key or an outdated install location path is found here:
[list]
[.]HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall[/.]
[.]HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall[/.]

It won't run with or without administration rights. Version 1.11 does run, and it shows up under process in Task Manager, however, newer versions don't even show up in task manager, they just don't launch at all.
I do have .net 4.5.1, and 4.6. I tried also your suggestions of deleting the folders and disabling my internet connection. I also tried running the executable in windows 7 compatibility mode, no luck.
What a bummer!

Maybe something is blocking the application from being executed? Anti-Virus Software for example? These programs are very aggressive sometimes. Sorry, I can only guess :(. Do you have another computer for testing if there's the same problem? In worst case you could do a fresh install of windows 10 without installing any other additional programs which could interfere with 3D Fix Manager and test it again. But I would suggst to make a complete backup of the old windows installation first by using Acronis True Image for example. So you can easily restore the backup when it didn't help anyway..

I created an example for Borderlands 2. This game requires assigning the game to "Alice Madness Returns" - profile (according to the fix description). For doing that I created this .nip file with Nvidia Inspector:
This removes borderlands2.exe from borderlands 2 profile and assigns it to Alice: Madness Returns.
I made another .nip for undoing the changes:

Thanks for the information Bo3b :) I'll add a copyright reference.
I went the easy way now - importing profiles by calling nvidiaInspector.exe" "someProfile.nip" -silent. This works pretty good so far. In fix profile tab it will be possible to add custom .nip - files for installing 3D profiles. Especially old DirectX 9 helixmod fixes will benefit of this (3dmigoto already installs 3d profiles automatically)

Thanks for taking the time to troubleshoot this. Unfortunately it is not generating an error log, the program is not crashing per say, it's simply not launching. I recorded a screencast so you can see how it hangs on launch, and nothing happens (this is the same situation after version 11)

Ah ok it isn't crashing at startup at all when there is no error_log.txt :-/. What is happening in Task Manager? Is there a process "3DFixManager.exe"?
So maybe there is some imcompatiblity with .NET framework? Do you have .NET framework 4.5 and 4.5.1 installed?
Does it make any differences when you start the application without admin rights?
It's unlikely that this helps but you could try to:
Maybe someone here in forum has more experience with trouble shooting wpf startup issues?

it seems there is a problem with the MINECRAFT fix.
i installed it before to install 3DFix.
it doesn't appear in 3DFix manager and badly, he worked some weeks ago, but i tried today, it doesn't work anymore, i think it's due to my system but 3Dfix could be useful to reinstall it correctly.
the fix is a little hard to put because there are a lot of things to do (see commentaries)

Hi greatxerox,
which version of minecraft is affected by this? I've seen that there are different versions of minecraft. A Steam version with story (http://store.steampowered.com/app/376870?l=german) and another version without story on https://minecraft.net/de-de/. And when I remember correctly there was a version for free? I've played minecraft only once many years ago. So I don't have any idea about this game any more.
If I find time I'll install minecraft and try the fix to know exactly what has to be done to make the fix work.
According to the comments on helixblog you have to assign a 3d profile (Max Payne 3). This is something 3D Fix Manager is able to do with the next release version.
When minecraft is not detected automatically by 3D Fix Manager then no registry key or an outdated install location path is found here:

It won't run with or without administration rights. Version 1.11 does run, and it shows up under process in Task Manager, however, newer versions don't even show up in task manager, they just don't launch at all.
I do have .net 4.5.1, and 4.6. I tried also your suggestions of deleting the folders and disabling my internet connection. I also tried running the executable in windows 7 compatibility mode, no luck.
What a bummer!
Maybe something is blocking the application from being executed? Anti-Virus Software for example? These programs are very aggressive sometimes. Sorry, I can only guess :(. Do you have another computer for testing if there's the same problem? In worst case you could do a fresh install of windows 10 without installing any other additional programs which could interfere with 3D Fix Manager and test it again. But I would suggst to make a complete backup of the old windows installation first by using Acronis True Image for example. So you can easily restore the backup when it didn't help anyway..
