I could not get the new wallet 1.9.0.0 to run in Windows and I see I'm not the only one.
The new wallet finishes loading the blocks/index of the snapshot and then just crashes.

I'm glad I took the "unnecessary step" of backing up my /roaming/1337 directory
because I was able to restore it and run the previous 1.8.0.0 version.
Had to launch it twice before it would run though.

I had 6 active connections. Now down to 1 connection.
I guess everyone else is trying to update their wallet and failing.

Does anyone know the reason for the update?
I mean if it works, don't fix it.
