DemoShield Player has encountered a problem

Asked By Robert L Hammon 20 points N/A Posted on - 03/05/2013

 

The issue came at the time of I am in one demolished file and try to change to play one more demo. One time it was really going well, on the other hand I have at this time been receiving these issues. In rare cases I also receive this similar error while I explore the designer. Some Suggestions?

Problem: DemoShield Player has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

Hi there Robert L Hammon,

Several different issues could cause the error you're getting. Since you're not getting it all the time, it's most likely the Page File size problem.

To enlarge the Page File open your Control Panel, and under system find Advanced options – Virtual memory. Find the correct drive and under Paging file size click Custom size and enter 4096MB as minimum and maximum.

Also, make sure your drivers and DirectX are all up to date.

Best regards,
Drake Vivian

DemoShield Player has encountered a problem

Hi there Jose V Lau,

The problem is that you were using the nCore version and were upgrading the software to a classic version that does not support some features you've been using before, like The App Flow.

To resolve the problem, you can either upgrade your software to the nCore version or you can open your settings and uncheck the feature called 'The App Flow'.

Best regards,
Drake Vivian

The full error reads:

“DemoShield Player has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.”

If you are trying to install a game or any application and you receive this error, try disabling UAC or User Account Control. Click “Start,” “Control Panel” then “User Accounts.” On the next screen, click “Change User Account Control settings.” In “User Account Control Settings” window, move the slider all the way down to “Never notify” then click “OK.”

Try installing again. If this doesn’t work, try booting in clean boot state. Press the Windows key + R to bring up the “Run” dialog then type without quotes “msconfig” then hit Enter. In “System Configuration” window, go to “Services” tab then check “Hide All Microsoft Services.” Next, click “Disable All” then click “Apply.” After this, go to “Startup” tab and click “Disable all.”

Click “OK” to exit the “System Configuration” window then restart the computer. After booting, check “Don’t show this message or launch the System” when the “System Configuration Utility” window appears. Try installing again.
