They are only allowed in our dev tools category. They still aren't allowed in addons/interfaces. There has been no change in policy since then.

Yes. PxP had to install .Net 3.5 so I have it installed.

2. Did you try running it directly from the internet? (download it first THEN run it)

No. I downloaded it, extracted it to my external hard drive and ran it.

3. If not: - What Operating system? (XP, 2000, Vista?) - Did it load before crashing? - Any error messages? - Did you give it appropriate permissions? (It might crash if it detects it doesnt have the ability to move files)

Microsoft Windows Vista.
It loaded and I attempted to back up my UI, it then immediately froze and remained unresponsive for long enough that I forced crashed it.

And I have all permission systems turned off, and WoW is installed to the external harddrive and not C:\Program Files.

See if theres a folder C:\DiscordTempDir (switch the drive to whichever has the exe running on it). If there is see if there are any folders/files in that folder. It should crash before it loads if it doesnt have permissions so I dont think that's it. Sometimes the operation can take a minute or 2... did the progress bar move at all when it was frozen?

Basicly it does this:
Copy Interface,WTF, and Fonts folders to Drive:\DiscordTempDir
Renames the folders in WTF.
Zips the files
Deletes Drive:\DiscordTempDir

There is a C:\DiscordTempDir and no the progress bar didn't move at all, and the window turned white as Windows does when a program stops working.

I'm trying to recreate the issue on my vista laptop (unsuccessfully so far). I'll see if I can get it fixed this weekend but I still can't figure out what could be causing it.

(just posted this to let you know I didnt just give up on solving this)

Which version of vista are you running? A co-worker told me that 2 versions of vista have some issues simaler to this (enterprise and some other version)
