Folder Monitor Camera

SharpCap has an error when trying to connect to "Folder Monitorin Camera". When it is launched for the first time, everything works as it should. However, if I delete all files from the monitored folder with an external program and launch SharpCap again, it displays an error message and never launches the "camera" again.

Hi,
I've been testing this and I can't make it happen. What version of SharpCap are you using? If it is an old version then maybe the bug has already been fixed in the latest updates?
I tested 4.1.14310 (latest release of SharpCap 4.1) and 4.2.15118 (latest SharpCap 4.2 beta release) - with or without the option to restore camera settings when opened, I never see this error.
If you are using an up-to-date version and are seeing the error, please send me the SharpCap log captured after the error has been displayed - the log will let me see in more detail what steps led to the error and maybe let me work out why you are seeing it and I do not.
thanks,
Robin
