Atlantis Word Processor Forum

I was worried I wasn't clear enough - the version of AWP in the Program Files folder is the regular version, NOT the portable one.

I will double-check the sounds - I thought I had them all turned off.

For now, as all seems to work, I'll see how it goes and follow your advice about zipping and ...

Sorry for the delay - very long couple of days of work with little sleep.

Here's the screencap after I ran the Command Line:

and that is where I had installed a permanent version of Atlantis last week, but then followed your instructions instead for the portable version ...

Sorry for sounding stupid, but do I copy/paste “C:\WINDOWS\System32\cmd.exe” and THEN copy paste "echo %programfiles(x86)%"?

I don't like playing around in DOS anymore, though it's how I started in the late 80s.



OK. Here are instructions that will most likely work:
1. Press the Windows icon in ...

I don't have that option on my Win10 Pro Start Button menu

Teresa, could you please do the following?
1. Right-click the Windows icon and choose Windows Terminal (Admin).
2. Click the down arrow icon and choose Command Prompt.

I followed your instructions and installed the portable copy.

It has now happened AGAIN. However, I think I know what the issue is. My computer went to sleep while I had Atlantis open. This never used to be an issue, but I think the same thing happened last weekend as well, but I can't say for sure ...

Either way, all set now. I really appreciate you sticking through this with me. I had no idea how dependent I was on AWP until ...

I excluded Atlantis.exe - no change

I did that, and it didn't make a difference. Still had the same issue. Added the following files to excluded list in McAfee, rebooted comptuer, still no change:

McAfee says there are no blocked connections.

But WHY would this suddenly happen after years of it working fine?

I don't have time to muck about with testing. I don't want to give up on Atlantis, but if it just gives up on me like this, I won't have a choice.

Hey there,

First - using Atlantis on a Win11Pro Dell laptop (up-to-date).

After a recent restart of my computer (after using it much of the day with no issues), I opened Atlantis, but when I tried to type, it threw the following at me:

UPDATE: It's a problem with my Control key!

All of a sudden my Hot Keys aren't working reliably. They were fine and then, suddenly, Ctrl-s, instead of Saving, just gives me an "s" and from time to time Ctrl-x, Ctrl-c, and Ctrl-v are giving me just the letters x, c, and v, instead of cutting ...
