Sentinel not working

[MikeeBinLA]

When I try to open Sentinel I get a "Sentinel stopped working " message. Have already tried deleting it and reloading. HELP

Are you running it as an Administrator?

Have you tried re-booting your machine?

Sentinel stopped working

Tried second posters link, frankly I didn't understand any of the tech jargon.
Was kind of hoping Paul (UPman) would have entered in by now.
PS:
Called Uniden and they couldn't even help me.
PPS:
Seam to remember someone sending me some Driver links that I used on another PC??

I have no idea what the issue is, but it seems to be very specific to your setup. Beyond that, I know not.

With all due repsct, you have a PC issue, not a Sentinel issue. Find a compenten, trusted PC repair person/shop.

I'd print all the thread I posted above for them. Also - advise that the proper Net framework needs installed (unsure which version is required).

This is what fixed it for the OP in the thread you were referred to. Use Edge or IE when clicking the link as Microsoft disabled Chrome(and maybe other browsers) on Microsoft links. Also Sentinel uses dot net framework 2.0

Maybe the "user.config" file is corrupted. Check out this link.

The path "Documents and Settings" has changed in later Win. versions. Go to "C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Uniden"

I would delete the folders starting with "BCDx36HP_Sentinel.exe_Url" Inside the folder is "user.config" file. Restart Sentinel and the folder and the user.config file should recreate.

Not nearly enough info. Like saying - the boat sunk Capt.


What is the exact error message or problem?

 

[captainmax1]

Was a update unit failed error which has already been addressed in the Firmware 1.16 Forum and Sentinel is now working properly.

Next time don't hijack someone else's thread or else you will be looking at an infraction.
