Weather Display  v10.37S (same issue with previous versions)
OS Windows Version 10.0.17763.1

[Weather Display]

do you happen to use a web cam with WD?

[GW400]

No, only Davis Vantage is connected through USB->COM

as a test
try
install to a new directory (via the full install)

then create a file their called

2wd.txt (makes sure its not .txt.txt (i.e disable hide known file extensions)

so that then WD will start up their with no settings, like brand new, as a test

[GW400]

Installed in new folder and created 2wd.txt

[Weather Display]

are you sure the file is called 2wd.txt
and not 2wd.txt.txt
ie, make sure to unset to hide known file extensions in windows

[GW400]

Yes, I'm sure

D:\WeatherDisplay2>dir *.txt
 Volume in drive D is DATA-01
 Volume Serial Number is 28E1-5183

 Directory of D:\WeatherDisplay2

using windows regedit.exe
is that a
wdisplayftp2.ini file in the registry and is there a wdisplay2.ini file in this 2nd install location

[GW400]

Hi,
No wdisplayftp2.ini reference i registry and no wdisplayftp2.ini filer in new folder

[Weather Display]

that tells me that the 2wd.txt file is not setup correctly

[GW400]

What can possibly be wrong with 2wd.txt.
I have a video showing the file and whats happening when starting WeatherDisplay.exe
It is too large to upload. Kindly send me an email with info about how I can send it to you.

As you can see i screenshot, file extensions are not hidden

[Weather Display]

my email address is at the bottom of every forum post, in the signature

if the 2wd.txt is correct then I do not know what is wrong
it could be your virus checker or firewall blocking it even

are you running WD as administrator?

[GW400]

Yes, I'm running WD as administrator and WD has worked for years on Windows Server 2003 to Windows Server 2016.
After upgrading to Windows Server 2019 it stopped working.
I have tried running in compatibility mode and checked fw rules and Windows event log, but can't see any issues or settings preventing WD to run
I'll send the video to your mail address
Thank's for working with me to try to resolve this!

[Weather Display]

the image you sent me mentions visual studio
but WD was not compiled with that
what program is creating that error?

[Weather Display]

have managed to fix this now

I had to remove a flash component
means you cant run the WDL bulit into WD now
