Explorer crashes when terminating my mfc-app
-
Hello, i wrote an mdi-app with c++/mfc under winnt 4.0. When logging off the current user from winnt, winnt closes all running apps before the login-dialog will be displayed. This works correct for all apps i tested, but when winnt wants to close my app before logging off, the explorer crashes. it seems that the app closes the right way, because no debug-message created by my app is missing in the corresponding debug-file. Where is the difference between closing an app by hand and closing an app automatically by winnt before logging off ? And why can my app cause the explorer to crash ? Please help me, i don't know a way to fix this :confused: Best regards tabor25
