Elecraft Frequency Memory Editor

Friends,

I have been enjoying the Elecraft Frequency Memory Editor for some time.

Yesterday it would not open from the icon on the taskbar or from the program
file.

I am not able to download it from the Elecraft website either. It goes
through the motions, but will not download.

Is this the result of an automatic Microsoft update a couple days ago, or
possibly the Win4K3Suite update I did yesterday?

Is there a setting someplace in Windows 10 that I need to change back?
Maybe a security setting?

Your thoughts will be appreciated.

Denny W8AKQ

Re: Elecraft Frequency Memory Editor

Was it still working after the Win 10 update? If so, best bet to look at
as the problem source would be the more recent update of Win4K3Suite.

It's still working fine for me with the latest Windows 10 update. I closed
DXLab's Commander before opening Frequency Memory Editor.

Hi,
The Win4K3Suite software has nothing to do with the frequency memory editor.
The editor is used to assign and edit frequency memories in the radio and
assign labels which are sent to the radio and if requested,saved to a file.
This file is then used by Win4K3 if the Frequency memory window is opened to
load the labels.
I just tested the latest Elecraft memory editor. It downloaded fine and
works fine. This is the case with Win4K3 open or not.
I would suggest doing an uninstall of the Elecraft Frequency memory editor
using the control panel, then downloading the file again. If you cannot
download the file then there is something fundamentally wrong in your
Windows install.
But it has nothing to do with the latest Win4K3 release.

Is this another instance of the "Norton" problem? Which does not allow
a program that it has little experience with.
If you are running Norton, disable it and try again.

Re: Elecraft Frequency Memory Editor

Norton can be overaggressive, but if you take a few minutes to learn how
to best use it, it's been fine. They've also lowered the CPU cycles it
takes, but with a modern CPU, it's hardly a noticeable performance lag
(ALL AV software requires a hit). Hint: Check the quarantine folder,
then 'trust' the program in question.

Since the editor is starting (no error message that it doesn't exist),
the problem lies elsewhere. Make sure you don't have more than one copy
running (task manager).

Re: Elecraft Frequency Memory Editor

Thanks to you all for your thoughts. You've given me ideas as to where to
look for a solution.

I in no way meant to impugn the quality or functioning of Win4K3. Sorry if
it came across that way. I rely on and use Win4K3 every day and have never
had a problem. I assumed that the problem was probably "operator error" in
downloading or saving it. I highly recommend Win4K3Suite!

I agree completely with Ken.
I too have used Norton for many years on 4 computers and have never had a
problem.
Would not be without it!
