    Hi,

    if I activate SkinManager.SkinningRules -> srStdDialogs using Windows10 my application crashes when I call the execute-method of any OpenDialog (TsOpendialog, TOpenDialog,…). Disabling this skinning-rule is a valid workaround, but I want to use AlphaSkins nice Skins in Windows-standard-dialogs too.

    The SkinManager-component crashes in the IDE when I open it with doubleclick and click on “add new”-button. It Shows the same error I get in my application calling an open-Dialog.

    I am using AlphaControls 11.26.

    The error appears in Windows 10 on three Computers (2 Laptops and one VM), so I think it is an error in all Windows10-installations.

    Regards,

    I could fix the problem.

    It occures every time when I automatically called an other form (it looks for updates and shows new releasenotes if an update was found) from within the OnActivate-Event of the main form where the SkinManager is located :wacko: .

    After moving this “lookForUpdates”-call to OnShow-event of the main form all works fine 😀 .

    Don't know why this is only a problem in WINDOWS 10, all works fine in WINDOWS 7 even if the call of the other form is in the OnActivate.

    Regards

    Thank you for the information, I will research it.

    If you have a test-app which you can share, it would be great.
