Try running Windows Updates and installing the latest Microsoft .net framework.
I think the latest is 4 although 2 seems to have fixed it for others.

Hi Geoff,
Dont give up its a handy tool.
Here is another link to the same problem.
https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=5143

What fixed it for me was:
Completing windows updates and installing .net framework 4
Rebooting - thats a must.
Reinstalling the toolbox.

Hopefully David will have more ideas for you.
Cheers

Hi, Thanks for the advice, all up and running now, I had .net version 2 installed but it would not run, so after finding .net 4 and installing it, great everything settled down and no more error messages. :D

Thanks all,
Regards,

Geoff

Hi all,

For me, this problem started yesterday.

So far I've deleted the old version of Toolbox, downloaded the latest version of Toolbox, cumuluswebtags.txt, updated Microsoft the latest version .NET Framework 4. Re-booted the computer and installed the new versions of Toolbox andcumuluswebtags.txt.

But I still get the error message, any ideas?

One of the consequences of the Toolbox problem is the failing of the programme to upload the Dayfile.txt for use by i-ICCP.

This has been resolved, please goto http://www.iiccp.co.uk/cumulus/ for the fix.

This is also part of this thread https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.p ... 603#p52603
