Handbrake not starting

Post by Endersams »

I downloaded Handbrake to compress a video, but when I started it, it just didn't start. I tried like everything, for example: downloading a bunch of .net versions, doing a backwards compatability thingy, downloading an older version of Handbrake.





IDK how to reproduce the problem




My Handbrake version currently is: 1.8.0




I am on Windows 11 Home, 10.0.22631 Build 22631




HandBrake 1.8.0 (2024052000)
OS: Microsoft Windows NT 10.0.22631.0
CPU: 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-12700F

Screen: 1920x1080

if you run dotnet --list-runtimes in a command line, what is the output of it?

Seems alright I would say.

Try moving/renaming the datadir "C:\Users\rowan\AppData\Roaming\HandBrake" to see, if it starts then.
