Win32diskimager latest version 1.0 downloaded and installs just fine. However when launching the executable it never comes up. No splash screen no nothing. Not sure where to look for it. I have several USB and SD cards plugged in. I can write a file just fine using the etcher program so I know my PC can see and write the retropi images just fine with that but love all the features of this program.
brand of micro sd card - SanDisk Ultra 32GB HC 1
image trying to write is a raspberry pi of course i never get that far.
I did find this in the event log

First, do you have any drive letters assigned to network shares , ramdisks, or using the ASSIGN to reassign a folder to a drive letter? This appears to be a common issue that I am looking into. If that is the case, I already have several bug reports both here and on Sourceforge.
If you have a software raid, this may also be causing an issue.
If this is not the case, can you try removing all USB/SD drives and relaunching? If it still fails, then there is really something odd happening.
Thanks for testing and reporting. Your help is greatly appreciated.
