The problem wasn't with the utorrent plugin, it's with the notification sounds, I don't know what happened, it stops working when trying to reproduce a sound. I re-instaled codecs and malu already and still with the problem. I use CCCP. Didn't have the problem before.

I was using k-lite before, and I was testing CCCP recently, CCCP is not part of the problem because the sounds worked with it before. Just checked using k-lite just in case but still the same. And after using k-lite again, I think CCCP is better, or it works better for me at least.

Can you fix the theme gallery on malupdater site?

It seems like first element of page 5 (Default sort) is messing it up, I get this error:

Error message: document.getElementById("title_Rena_v.1") is null

As a result, can't see that entire page

MAL updater won't launch. It stopped working about a week ago and when I try to launch it gets to splash screen and then it just shuts itself down. It doesn't even leave error message.

Reinstalling program doesn't work and portable version doesn't work either. I've also tried running it in compatibility mode and launching it as administrator but neither of them worked.

Program version: 2.8
OS: Windows 7 Pro 64bit

Tried the Portable version with no luck.

Ziu, we might have the same problem, but i found out its not creating an AppData folder, and it's not in the registry even though i've tried installing it several times.

No error messages? The program insta closes on start-up if it has been altered (with resource editors f.e)

After reading your message I looked around the AppData folder and noticed the same thing. Also Malu2updater.exe gives the error message: Error Accessing AppData folder. Makes sense since the whole folder is missing.

I tried copying AppData folder from my old computer and pasted it to this one but it only fixed the Malu2updater.exe. Mal Updater itself did the same thing as before.

What antivirus do you use? I was having this problem too after Avast! updated to version 7. I somehow managed to get it into silent mode and it was sand-boxing MALU without telling me. After turning off silent mode when i started up MALU it gave me the "i'm checking this program out" message and after telling it this program is ok it loads up fine.
Also, if you use Avast!, if you turn off autosandbox, you won't run into this problem (if you don't want it on)

I got a new laptop then I installed avast, malupdater, etcetc in it. Now whenever I startup my laptop the malupdater won't automatically start. I already checked the "log in on start up" box. I added Malupdater in firewall exception including avast exception blabla. I did msconfig and malupdater is checked on startup. I tried to put a copy of Malupdate.exe in the startup folder but there was no luck. Anyone knows how to fix it? Help pls~

Everyone seems to have issues with Avast. You could use the antivirus from Microsoft instead, it's free and honestly works rly well.

The Now Playing thing doesn't work, and MAL doesn't auto-update anymore.
It says Status: No Player/Media found. I tried downloading the newest VLC 2.0 but before that I was using the 1.whatever version that supported 10bit.

When I click play next episode it finds everything allright and starts playing it, but it doesn't update. I tried messing around with all the options and settings but that didn't help.

Weird, tested VLC 2.0, worked fine set as 1.x

You could try also MPC-HC, current builds support 10bit as well.

I tried using MPC and that worked. But I really hate the layout and interface of that player.
I'll just stick to updating it manually for now.

Tried running malu as admin? VLC recognition doesn't even rely on titlebar caption names etc so it should be more reliable, although malu needs process memory access to read it.

Ok, so heres something strange:

Since a few days ago I cant seem to run MALU at all. The splash screen pops up, I can see the process in the task manager, which disappears after a few seconds. I already tried to reinstall and deleted my settings but nothing changed. As it doesn't even start I cant get any debugging to look at, at least none that I know of.

I did not change anything at all, for some odd reason it just stopped working. I'm using Windows 7 x64, plus MPC.

Yep. Using Avast!. Tried to disable it and it seems to work. Just updated my antivirus, will reboot and see if it works again.

Edit: Alright, Problems solved. Looks like Avast! felt the need to add MALU into a sandbox environment, without telling me, in order to troll me. Interestingly, it did not do that before, despite the fact, that Avast! added the functionality quite some time ago.

Anyways, thanks for the heads up!

It's strange because when I use a custom sound it works, but when it's a predefined sound it can't play it. If the audio files are missing it should be repaired once I reinstall, but it doesn't...

Most likely the antivirus or some protection app is blocking malu from extracting the sound files to the tmp folder.

Hi, not sure if my problem has a solution yet or not within the 175 pages of forum posts, but as soon as I update MAL Updater on my Win 7 64-bit system, it refuses to open and displays the warning:

"Unsupported 16-bit Application: This program or feature cannot start or run due to incompatibility with 64-bit versions of Windows. Please contact the software vendor to ask if a 64-bit Windows compatible version is available."

I tried uninstalling and re-installing from the website (reset settings and everything), but it always requires an update and immediately "bricks" the program so now I can't even use it anymore.

Sounds like either the download doesn't finish properly, or your antivirus is blocking it. Using avg/avast?

Hmm I'm not sure about the update download not finishing; I downloaded the .exe from the main site and then it updates from that. Actually, just disabled my anti-virus (I use Trend Micro), and the update downloaded properly. Everything working again. Thanks for the advice!

Ah, that's good to know because I just had the exact same problem. I'll try that.

It's not the first time that Trend Micro has chucked the shits about MALUpdater. It once tried to uninstall it without my permission.

I've been using MAL Updater's "related" tab and trying to add all of the related anime there to my plan to watch. For "Mai-Hime" and "Mai-Otome", two anime on my list, MAL Updater is listing a related show called "Mao-Hime", which doesn't seem to actually exist. How is a show appearing in MAL Updater, but not on My Anime List itself?
