Hi there
Trying out LHCdev on a machine of mine and getting a computation error (206 (0x000000CE) EXIT_INIT_FAILURE).
Can somebody point me to a root cause that I can fix based on the output of the working file below?
Additional info:
BOINC & Data-Folder are in the C:\Program Files and ...Data Folder.
so the path length is not extrodinary long?
<core_client_version>8.2.4</core_client_version>

The filename or extension is too long.
