Windows 7 32: can't do screen capture in Sikuli X 1.0 RC2

[Roman Podolyan]

The problem emerge after upgrade from 10.2 to X 1.0 RC2.

After I try to capture (by clicking Click() or Capture button) the Sikuli IDE just disappears from screen, and then no overlay and interface for capturing, nothing (process javaw remains in memory).

Capturing with the Sikuli X RC1 - works.

I read about the problems with Java, so checked mine - latest up to now jre-6u24 (and JDK) is installed. I even deleted previous Java runtimes - that didn't help too.

Will try to check this at home on my other Win7 PC.

This happens to me as well on Win7 32-bit Starter. I found that if I start the program in Administrator Mode it doesn't crash but that also means my users with non-admin rights must enter an admin password to run the program. In Sikuli 10.2 the users could run the program without any issue.

Seeing the same problem on WinXP.

Based on the comment above, I tried executing the application with Administrator Rights - but I saw the same problem. The IDE disappears but the background process remains.
