IE11 just sneaked its way onto my system yesterday, and after a month with no problems Poser 8 and Poser 9 have stopped working today. Coincidence?! Again!?

I've done a bit more investigation this time (posted over on the DAZ thread - see the 2nd post on this thread for the link). I'll just note my new conclusions here:

a) It seems to be a combination of IE10/11, having your default Poser 8/9 default content installed in an external runtime, and possibly other factors.

b) There seem to be two distinct symptoms, both seeming to result from the factors in (a) above.

• The first is the "Poser 8/9 has stopped working" message.
• The second is that Poser 8/9 is working (you can move the camera and render) but the library pane remains blank and the busy cursor appears when you mouse over it.

c) I got rid of the "Poser 9 has stopped working" issue with IE11 by manually editing my C:Users{account}AppDataRoamingPoser9 LibraryPrefs.xml file to remove the external runtime with the default Poser 9 content. I was left with the blank library pane issue.

Any thoughts, suggestions or insights would be greatly appreciated.

And it usually uses Poser 11, with units set to inches. Except when it's using Poser 6 or PP2014, or when its units are set to PNU.
