Created attachment 194 window error message this error message appears every time a Workrave message tries to show itself on the screen. It'll appear as soon as one choses 'doorgaan'(continue): indicating 'time for a micro pause'. As soon as this is supposed to change into , the error message appears again. Once having chosen 'doorgaan' again the actual message 'micro pause'counting down 30 seconds will appears and it is possible to continue working as normal. I.e. until the next occasion Workrave requests for a pause. If one does not chose 'doorgaan' (continue) it is possible to continue working, but the systems slows down considerably and more often than not it is not possible to use the Internet (explorer) anymore. And of course there will be no ore Workrave announcements. Oddity: this bug does not show itself every time my PC is started. It only happens approximately once in every three to four times. It does not appear at all when Workrave is not activated.

Mr. Frank, Preferences > User interface > Sounds > No Sounds If that solves the problem please exit Workrave, reinstall and then enable sounds.

Hello Ray, No the problem has not been solverd, because the sound had already been switched off. And yes, I'm sure the message box only shows when Workrave is running? So, what next?

Please execute the following four commands in a command window. Each command may appear here to continue on a second line due to wrap. Each command is separated by a blank line. dir /on /n /s "c:\program files\workrave" > "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\workrave_file_list.txt" reg export HKLM\Software\Workrave "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\workrave_global.reg" reg export HKCU\Software\Workrave "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\workrave_settings.reg" reg export HKCU\AppEvents\Schemes\Apps\Workrave "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\workrave_sound.reg" Please upload workrave_file_list.txt, workrave_global.reg, workrave_settings.reg, workrave_sound.reg to this thread or e-mail them to me. Thanks, Ray
