Every few weeks, Cumulus locks up my computer. My Davis logger is locked out. I have to restart Windows. If I then restart Cumulus...it does activate correctly and loads both the data backup and downloads the unread data from the Davis logger.
I use V1.94, build 1097.
I thought perhaps that updating to the newest 1099 build might fix the problem.
However, when I try to use the CumulusSetup.exe...I get the following message: "Delete File Failed:Code 5. Access Denied"
Should I uninstall build 1097, before attempting to use 1099Setup? My Cumulus folder has an 'unins000.exe' file.
Is this program recommended rather than using the standard Windows uninstall?
If I do, will the newest backup file bring in the necessary communication settings that I have been using?

Re: Failure to upgrade...
Backup your data folder and also your cumulus.ini file, and any xxxT.htm files that you may have modified, then remove/uninstall everything else and re-download and install Cumulus, and copy in the backed up files.
Sorry can't help on the lock up but you should try to find the cause as a new install may not fix that, but worth a try and there are other benefits by running the most current version/built anyway.
Good luck,
Paul
