I have just started having a problem with Aurora HDR. When I try to merge photos it starts to merge then after a couple of minutes I get the Windows 'ping' and Aurora switches off. I have tried restarting the computer also my other photographic software. 'Lightroom' still works OK. I am on the latest update of Windows 10

    Hi John,


    We would appreciate if you send us a screenshot with information about your PC.

    On Windows 10 right click on "Start Menu" and click on "System" in pop-up menu to open "System" window. Press the “Windows logo key + PrtScn” and the screenshot will appear as a file in a folder entitled “Screenshots”, inside your default “Pictures” folder.

    Please try to fix the issue by installing Visual C++ and NET Framework updates.

    Download NET Framework 4.6.1: https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=49982

    Here's a link to Visual C++ 2015 https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48145 

    It's better to have C++ 2013 installed as well: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40784 

    If Visual C++ says it is already installed, choose "Repair" option to make sure it is installed correctly. 

    All links should lead to official Microsoft resources.

    Hello

    Thanks your advice seems to have worked.

    I downloaded NET Framework, but it was already installed, Visual C also installed, but I clicked 'repair' and now all is well.

     

     

    Thanks

    I am having the same problem after the latest Windows update.  It tries to merge and crashes.

    I tried the solutions above, but the installations fail telling there me there is a *newer* version of NET FW 4.6.1 and the Visual C++ 2015.   The repair for C++ 2013 did work.

    Please advise !!

    Thanks

    Hi Luis,

    Then instructions above were for Aurora HDR 2018 - here are the updated instructions for Aurora HDR 2019:

    • Please ensure that your computer meets the system requirements posted here (click this text to open link).
    • Let us know your version of the app (start Aurora > click Help > About Aurora).
    • If there are any updates for your Windows, install them.
    • Ensure that you have NET Framework 4.7.2. Download it here (click this text to open link).
    • Ensure that you have C++ 2013. Download it here (click this text to open link). Select your preferred language, click Download, mark vcredist_x64.exe with a checkbox, and click Next to download it. 
    • Ensure that you have Visual C++ 2015. Download it here (click this text to open link). Select your preferred language, click Download, mark vcredist_x64.exe with a checkbox, and click Next to download it.

    In case the steps above didn't help:

    • Press the Windows logo key + R.
    • Type msinfo32 in the dialog box that opens and hit Enter on your keyboard.
    • In the window that opens, make sure you have System Summary highlighted on the left.
    • Click File > Export.
    • Type the name of the file and save it somewhere where you can easily find it
      and attach this text file to an email to support@skylum.com

    Let us know how it goes.
