GCompris.exe stopped working. Windows is checking for a solution to the problem... about gcompris-qt HOT 6 OPEN

Hi,
Thanks for the report. We need some more info to investigate.
Can you tell us the specifications of the laptops where the problem happens, and to compare, those of a laptop where it doesn't happen: laptop model, cpu, memory, storage, maybe also if it's connected to internet or not... Did you install manually the extra files for the voices and the dataset ? If not, you can maybe try that, in case if the bug is caused by the connection and download part, it might help...

If it happens to be exactly the same hardware, then it'll be very hard to find the cause.

No, I haven't downloaded anything more (sounds or dataset). It doesn't matter if I have the UTP cable plugged in or not, GCompris QT will close anyway. The problem is that I haven't taken notes about which particular laptops show this symptom. Is there any debug build I could use?
If you need me to do something else, please tell me. I will try some tests of my own tomorrow.

I can tell you more about the exact point it closes: When you launch the application, the main buttons at the bottom left corner first slide upwards (expanding their size) to their final position, then they slide downwards (reducing their size) and then when they slide upwards again for the second and final time, they make a pause in their movement half way. This pause also happens in all computers, even those that GCompris doesn't close, however in the laptop with the bug, this pause is the exact point where it closes, displaying the message about the crash and the menu buttons never complete their movement beyond this pause.

Hi,
I made a "debug" version to try to fix your issue.
http://gcompris.net/download/qt/windows/gcompris-qt-0.81-win32-debug.exe
Can you please try to install it, launch it from a terminal, and give us all the log output ?

1. I deleted AppData/Local/GCompris and AppData/Local/KDE to start fresh.

2. First time I run GCompris --> crash at same point with log:

notifyDemoMode: true
exeCount set to: 1
qml: enter main.qml (run #1, ratio=1.476923076923077, fontRatio=1.6, dpi=72, sharedWritablePath=C:/Users/teacher/AppData/Local/GCompris)
qml: first run dialog start
qml: first run dialog OK
qml: onCompleted OK

3. In a no-crash situation, log is:

notifyDemoMode: true
