Hi there,

I have workrave on WinXP and it works great.

I have workrave on two Win7 machines and both have the same problem - the timer appears, counts two seconds and stops counting, and does not disappear after the designated break time. 

I hope it is fixable as I like workrave but it is unusable like this.
Best,
Mariya

Hi,

I'm a bit unclear about which timer you are referring to. Would it be possible for you to attach a screenshot, or a photo of your monitor showing the timer that doesn't count down?

Thanks!

Hi,

The whole thing freezes. 

- When a short break comes up and it starts counting the time - it freezes on 28 seconds (my break is set to be 30sec). I have to kill the program in order to close the break timer window.

- If I skip it or postpone it, when it comes up again the same thing happens.

- The long breaks freeze on 9:47 seconds.

- Also workrave is not visible in the taskbar when active.

- I have uninstalled it and installed it again a few times.

Please help as I really want to use it.

Hi again,

Attached screen shots. One correction - the long 10min break freezes at 8:19 mins.

Could you please try:

http://snapshots.workrave.org/20101205/workrave-win32-v1_9_2-62-g38d6df67e3-20101205-installer.exe

This version uses a different way of monitoring user activity.

Thank you, this fixed it! Happy New Year.
