[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #61835] GNU Octave GUI runs with 4.4.1 (w32), 5.2.0 (w32) and 6.1.0 (w32) but not with 6.3.0, 6.4.0 (w32) under windows 10.

Follow-up Comment #14, bug #61835 (project octave):

@hngursoy: Yes, I absolutely believe you, that (4.4.1, 5.2.0 and 6.1.0) are
working fine 😉 

The tricky part is now to find out what makes those working installations
different from the new ones.  And therefore I need your help, as I do not have
physical access to your system.  Thus if I ask questions, I need information
to exclude a particular source of errors.  I also run different Octave
versions in parallel on MS Windows.  It is not impossible.

As the Octave 6.4.0 GUI seems to pop up on the first run for a short instant
of time, I am tempted to believe it is in the end

Please make sure the following directories and files are properly deleted
before starting Octave again:


After Octave upgrade the GUI does not open / shuts down immediately.
Solution:
Version 5.2.0 and older: Delete the folder
C:\Users\YOUR_USER_NAME\.config\octave
Version 6.1.0 and newer: Delete the folder %APPDATA%\octave, which generally
is located at C:\Users\YOUR_USER_NAME\AppData\Roaming\octave


Another source of error might be that you have multiple screens attached to
your PC.  Is this the case?
