Now this is truly weird!

I just had a power fail here and when the UPS cut in I suddenly had two copies of every task running.  Not only the 8 gambas projects I had open but everything, and I mean everything ... including X.

Not weird enough?
One copy of Shane's project has "Stop on each error" unclicked and the other, guessing by the task id, is clicked.  Both reproduced the same error.

Too much weirdness! Reboot.

Yep, now his project (first one opened) comes up with "Stop on each error" clicked. and fails.  But as you say... unclicking it and the error goes away. 

Problem solved. But this really indicates a need for a strongly worded help page for that "Stop on each error" option. (I have been caught before on this too!)  Suggested help may include "Don't use this - you will forget you set it!!! "

best regards
Bruce


p.s. Why use that Try instead of If Not Exists() in that loop, in fact why not start the loop at User.Home instead of / ?
