there is a used package in the chain, built with the old rtl

Ah, wasn't it you who got rid of the comments in the form class declarations? 😛

Each unit name belongs to a new line, with groups separated by an empty line.

If you already a time billionaire, you could check these tools too https://www.google.com/search?q=install+monitor

What menu is that? Found it in the main menu context. It looks like I uninstalled (along with many others) the BPL that had this community thing.

I see. Maybe you could try some other values, like 11001 or 9999, but I'm out of ideas if that's not helping. 😕

try to add bds.exe with decimal value 11000 full version list here https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/internet-explorer/ie-developer/general-info/ee330730(v=vs.85)?redirectedfrom=MSDN

Yeah I see that. I wrote FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION

did you accidentally changed the rendering mode for Delphi? HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION

I can't remember which unit it was, and which Delphi release, but there was a constructor similar to this where some graphics or hash table was filled with thousands of lines. After a certain size, the compiler silently cropped the code and linked the exe without any error. Nevertheless, I would rewrite the generator to produce 16 (0-F first byte) array constants, sorted by the MAC address rather than the vendor. Additionally, I would substitute the vendor string with a lookup table to eliminate the redundant entries.

will it catch? place it at the top of the uses list in the dpr, set a breakpoint at the "begin" in "TExceptionCatcher.RaiseException" and examine the call stack unit ExCatcher; interface uses Winapi.Windows; type TExceptionCatcher = class public class procedure RaiseException(dwExceptionCode, dwExceptionFlags, nNumberOfArguments: DWORD; lpArguments: PDWORD); stdcall; end; implementation class procedure TExceptionCatcher.RaiseException(dwExceptionCode, dwExceptionFlags, nNumberOfArguments: DWORD; lpArguments: PDWORD); begin // place breakpoint here end; initialization RaiseExceptionProc := @TExceptionCatcher.RaiseException; end.

I call MessageBox because ShowMessage had some issues before initialization.

I think you are looking for IDesignNotification / DesignerOpened in DesignIntf.pas the menu item is EditLockControlsItem:TMenuItem on the main Form, and the action is EditLockControlsCommand:TAction

You have selected "Search in directories" on that screenshot. I never used this feature since I use a proper file manager for tasks like that, but the question that arises is: Is it possible that you have a circular directory link, and Delphi is not able to detect it?

Which Delphi version? I have a Ctrl-A patch unit in my Berlin but the only comment is that it's fixed in Tokyo 😄 edit: ok, it's something different from your issue.
