but your post suggests the official version No, I run a patched version, and that can be readily found by looking "in the usual places", and as LC 963Open Source is, well, open Source, no-one should be fussed about that. And as LiveCode let LC 9.6.3 Open source "go free" quite a while back now I am...

How about running your stack on either Linux or Macintosh: if it runs on one of those systems you know the problem is with your Windows set up, if it does not run then the problem is somewhere in your stack.

Ah, but in this case there is no best possible answer: there are several answers each with advantages.
