Nope. Not working

Which anti-virus program do you use? check its quarantine to see if it deleted any Lively files.

Also try installing this:

I use Microsoft Defender, and no quarantined files.

Also try installing this: https://github.com/rocksdanister/lively/wiki/Common-Problems#web-wallpapers-not-working

I have that already installed

Try updating to latest visual c++:
https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x86.exe

Also share the logfile.txt located at:
C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Local\Lively Wallpaper\Cef

[yaboisid]

I have the latest version of C++ already installed. Log file are attached with the reply.

Not much to see, can you check your System Event Viewer for LivelyCefSharp and CefSharp.BrowserSubProcess application error messages? what does it say.

[yaboisid]

Yes, there are some errors.

Can you try replacing the contents of this folder:

<Lively install location>\plugins\cef\

With each of these releases, then try running the wallpaper each time:

1. https://github.com/rocksdanister/lively-cef/releases/tag/v1.6.0.0
2. https://github.com/rocksdanister/lively-cef/releases/tag/v1.7.0.0
3. https://github.com/rocksdanister/lively-cef/releases/tag/v1.5.5.0

[yaboisid]

Works now with v1.7.0.0 version. Thanks!

[rocksdanister]

Hi can you check (1) and (3) also?

[yaboisid]

1 and 3 doesn't wok for me.

[rocksdanister]

@amaitland any clue whats happening? looks like older builds of CefSharp are failing for some users.

[CrippledAxis]

Works fine now! Thanks!
I used [v1.7.0.0]

This was a known bug in 108 when no cache path was specified and application was installed in readonly folder. See https://magpcss.org/ceforum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=19318 for related discussion

Should be fixed in v109.1.110 or greater.

109 is the last version to run on Windows 7/8/8.1.

Ah that makes sense, I did not do admin install tests.. all my tests were on AppData and not program files!

Weird the Windows store version did not have this issue though (packaged using msix) Nevermind.. its using older version before the issue.
