Refusing to Open
Over the last three weeks, each time I've tried to open Logos 5 in Windows 8, the Logos Logo pops up, but the screen never loads. I've tried restarting the computer, and opening while holding "CNTRL", but nothing is working.

Hi Nicholas - and welcome to the forums
Sorry to hear you are having problems
We would need to see some diagnostic logs as outlined at https://wiki.logos.com/Diagnostic_Logging
From that article:
"To turn on logging for one session, hold down the CTRL key as you start Logos and then signin (this will open to a blank layout with Logos 6).
The log files are written toDocuments\Logos Log FilesorDocuments\Verbum Log Files(for Verbum)."So, as you are holding down the Ctrl key you should have the logs we need.
Please upload them to the forum - using the paperclip icon - after an unsuccessful start attempt

These two both came up - thanks.
I think this probably means you need to open the Windows Control Panel, find Logos in the list of applications and Repair it.
But it would be good to get views of people who understand these logs better than I do first!

Are You using a 64-bit Windows operative system and have Logos 6 or Verbum 6 installed on the same machine as well?

Please start a separate thread and provide as many details as you can
Please also enable diagnostic logging and upload logs after a failed start attempt as per https://wiki.logos.com/Diagnostic_Logging

Sorry about the late response, but could you try these:
- In Control Panel >> Programs and Features, find Logos bible Software, right click and select Repair.
- If that doesn't work install Visual C++ 2012
Let us know if it works.
