When you say "it would not stack" do you mean that it could not find alignment stars, or did it find alignment stars but very little of the nebula was visible even after stacking?

It could not find alignment stars. I did see stars in the field.

Has anyone who used live stacking had any trouble with the Full Moon in the sky? I used SharpCap and used live stacking on nebula (Lagoon, Trifid, Swan, and Ring Nebula). Somehow it would not stack even though I got it to get 5 second exposure by slowing down the frame rate close to 1 frame every 5 ...

My original plan for SharpCap 3.2 was to add quite a large number of new features and aim for a release late 2018 (beta in autumn 2018). I now have a new plan :D The new plan is to split what was going to be one big release out into 2 smaller releases. SharpCap 3.2 which I am aiming to release &quo...

Have you followed the 'create another user' stepsa nd tryied logging on with the new user?

Dave

Number 1.

When you say "run as Administrator" is that 1. Right click the SharpCap icon and choose Run as administrator ? or 2. Log on with a different account which is an Administrator Account type? For the user with the problem, let us call it BadUser , is it a Standard or Administrator account ty...

Try logging on to the machine with a different user account. If you do not have one then create a new one. Log on with the new user and follow the steps to try to reproduce the Sharpcap error. If you cannot reproduce the error under the new user that indicates a corrupt profile for the old user. If...
