So I want to try this miner. First Google Chrome won't download it, because of potential danger. I ignored that. Then my Windows Defender goes crazy about this file. Ok, it could be a false positive, so I put it in my exclusion list. I start the executable and it creates a config.toml file, which I adjust with my settings. But after this first start the executable just won't run anymore?! Even after a reboot the executable won't start.

I can't be the only one experiencing this problem? Why can't I find anything about this in this thread?

Start the executable through command line and report the error text here, I started to rework error reporting, so the miner will wait for user input on errors, but I must have missed something.

I would really help you with some error text, but as I told earlier, nothing happens after launching it the first time...
