Hi, i am using Action for many years and i have never seen or heard this problem before.
I stopped recording like everytime and suddenly Action crashed after few seconds and immediately it restarted itself and started again (without me manually starting it). When it starts it crashes and restarts agan. And agan and again. I cannot use the software because right after it starts it keeps restarting in never ending loop.
I tried starting it as administrator, i tried restarting PC, shutting down PC, i tried everything, but nothing helps.
Can someone please help me? I need to use Action daily and this is serious problem for me :( Thank you

Please try removing or moving to another location all your video files from your video output folder. Once your video folder is empty please run Action! and see if it's still crashing.

Thank you, the last video file that was recorded and after which the program crashed for the first time was somehow corrupted (even though you could play it and edit it in video editor fine) and i was having hard time even moving it somewhere else or deleting it. But i managed to do that and after that Action is working again. Thank you a lot :)
