Post subject:  CC will not start

Suddenly, Cortex command is deciding not to start, the game was working perfectly a few moments ago. When I try to start the game, I get the following error:

Quote:
Abortion in file .\System\Reader.cpp, line 531, because:

Wrong type in Reader when passed to Serializable::Create() in Base.rte/Settings.ini
at line 1!

The last frame has been dumped to 'abortscreen.bmp'


A moment ago the process was still running even when i couldn't start the game and every time I tried to close it with administrator access, it would say that i didn't have permission to terminate the process.

I am running on Windows Vista with 2 GB of ram with an Pentium Dual core processor; if that information is of any use.

Could there be any specific reason why this could be happening?

Something corrupted your settings.ini, easiest fix is to install a new copy and copy over the settings.ini. Remember to hit the unregister before you do so though, just in case.

Since i couldn't get into the game, i used the 'unregister' .bat file in the cortex command directory and received the same error, but then told me my key had been unregistered so i could use it elsewhere. Considering that I received the same error, is there any guarantee that it worked?

Also, thanks for the help.

You still need to reinstall cortex command. Unregister.bat is just so your key is freed up for when you reinstall.

I meant that I was worried that for whatever reason, due to the issue why i couldn't start the game that the license key did not get unregistered, but nevermind; I reinstalled the game and re-registered the license key and it works perfectly.

Thanks for the help.

For future reference, even if it doesn't unregister properly you can reset it yourself online through the licensing page here.
