Sqlyog Professional Doesn't Open

[GargoyleFace]

I was running the Trial version for 14 days and it worked fine.  I then made the mistake of purchasing the Professional version.  After uninstalling the trial, and downloading and installing the full version (Why do I have to do this?) The application will not open. The first time I opened it it prompted for a key, and that was fine, but then it said “REstoring Session….” and then made that error noise and never opened.  I am running the 64-bit version of SQLYog 12.1.3 on Windows 10.  Again, the Trial worked fine.

 

I have uninstalled/re-installed/restarted about three times now and no difference.  It just says “Restoring SEssion” and then closes.  I can see in Task Manager that the process is actually running, but the GUI will not load.

 

Any ideas? I can’t find anything in event viewer or any helpful logs.

 

I wonder if the issue is related to it trying to “REstore the session” but I don’t know how to disable this if the application won’t even open.

 

Thanks

Wow…so…all of a sudden, instances of SQLYog just started showing up.  So….it does come up, but takes about 20 minutes! Very strange.  Now I have 10 instances open because I kept trying to load it in different ways….ha.

 

Any idea why it would take literally 20 minutes to open?!

Please try to:

 

1) reboot Windows if youd id not already

2) temporarily disable what AV/security sotware you have. 

 

If no luck then try to disable ‘session restore’. so that we can see if this is related.
