immediately , it creates a stderr which contains the following

I found the folder you mentioned and I deleted it , now pharo does not
open at all even when run without "run as administrator"
Boy I hate Windoom. I also tried Tim link , nothing, pharo opens but
does nothing, no gui, nothing. I know it opens because i can see its
process in the task manager which i have to terminate manually.
I do all my coding and art on macos, I only have windows at work so i
can test my code on windoom too, but this was the last straw, I had
enough with this uber crappy OS for 17 years now. I am dropping
support for it and sticking to MacOS only.
Thanks guys for your help but it does not worth it. I hope no other
windows user experience my problem.
I empathize. I've been a Linux advocate for years, but never made the
full desktop switch since I needed a Windows system for corporate
compatibility. Then I got a mac-mini to experiment with iPad Mobile
Device Management, and found it easier to get Latex working on it than
on Windows (for processing Pillar output), and now I find myself using
it for Pharo more every day, and my Windows box is starting to be
neglected (except I still need to migrate my old Thunderbird email archive).
However success in the corporate world still hinges a lot on Windows
compatibility. I will still have a go at updating PharoLauncher
Installer to avoid this problem.
cheers, Ben
P.S. @Tim, Your alternate-VM feature sound interesting. I'll check it out.
