Yes, I would be interested in the control flow differences between MC proper, and Media Editor in terms of how the startup process goes, where it looks for license info, and so on. What windows into the process do I have as a user without source code? As Larry mentioned, maybe there's something in registry? Does the Media Editor read the license file "differently", or is that definitely not an issue because of shared library code, or??? Could the Editor's lookup path to the license file be wrong? If so, where would I find that, or is there a way to log that process so I can see where it's having trouble? Since I can't get Media Editor to start, I don't have direct menu access to its own Properties menu items or anything, so I'd need another way to get at that sort of thing.
Thanks!
