Well, I was starting up version 407 on windows 10 and it gave me the "out of bounds -1" message again.
I restarted it and I had a black screen and all the buttons were German.
So I ran setup again and overwrote the configuration.
Should I be installing at an administrator?

I've lost count of the number of times I've successfully installed WinPoint over the last 20+ years and I've never ever had to install it with administrator priveleges.

Heard of it, but have not seen it.

That means something bad happened while reading the configuration. The software will not work in that state.

It should not be possible to install WP without admin right !?

OK, I will make sure that time.
Can Iinstall an older newer version over top of another build?
Interest if your new version 4.08.3 might help.
Smooth sailing with my current 4.07 buildd

If it happens again, even before pressing ok on the dialog, you could use regedit.exe to make a copy of the WP configuration (save to file) stored at
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\New.Vision.Software\WinPoint
and send me that file (by email) for diagnosis. Maybe it helps finding or at least narrowing down the problem.
Note that in the resulting file will also contain your passwords. So you might want to use a text editor to remove these from the file before sending it to me.
Also, you can use the above method to backup your configuration and restore it with a single click from the saved file, in case it breaks again.
