Hi, I'm having trouble with this error for the past two moths. I'm using Windows 10 64x system, and still newbie at this programming things. Started to have this kind of error from the first time installing to my laptop. Starting with Digikam 5.7.0 then, been uninstalling and installing after that and the same error occurred. Database used at that time was SQLite. I'd appreciate it if the team can help me solving the error. Tq.
where is stored the collection ? Local or remote ? Gilles Caulier
Local. Oh another thing I noticed, right after installing Digikam 5.7.0, command window popped up, ran something (could not catch up the command) and it said "Application menu () was not found".
Hum. This popup windows is called by installer to register application icons to Windows menu entry. You must never seen this kind of message. I suspect a broken Windows installation or a corrupted something in your system. Here, i run Windows 7 and Windows 10 in virtual machine to test the Windows installer and the application. I never seen something like this. I recommend : 1/ to take another computer with a fresh Windows (7 | 8 |10). 2/ to install the last stable 6.0.0 as 5.x start to become really an older version. Take a care that 6.x come with a new database schema which will be migrated from 5.x at first run. You will be not able to go back to 5.x later. Make a database backup before. 3/ you can take also the 6.1.0 pre-release installer where we come with plenty of fix for Windows. https://files.kde.org/digikam/ Gilles Caulier
I see. Noted. I'll try my best and do as as per recommendation. I'll get back to you later. Tq very much :)
Which errors occur exactly when you try to add a collection? Maybe with screenshot. The DOS window after installation is normal and is an output of KSycoca and the error message is not a problem on Windows. Maik

Please, before to start digiKam, download debugview tool from Microsoft and run it. It will capture all debug trace from digiKam. Start digiKam, reproduce the problem, and report here the text trace from debug view. Look here for details : https://www.digikam.org/contribute/ GilleS Caulier

Oh wow, looked at that. It has been hardware problem all this while. I'll thinking of the alternatives later. I have tried to get consultation from the Windows Team too. Come to worst, have to send it to professional for hardware services. Thank you Giller Caulier and Maik for the assistance :) Recommend to close.
