Yourkit not starting

Post by jockol »

hi,

My copy of yourkit stopped working after installing a newer version. So I uninstalled all versions and reinstalled the original version (2019.8-b142), but that didn't help. Looking at ProcessMonitor after I start the program I see:

Could it be because of the registry keys not being found? How can I resolve this?

- Why do you have so many "profiler" processes?

- Do you have an antivirus software? Can it block the start of the profiler?

I have no idea, maybe the original one is failing and starting new ones?
I do have an antivirus, but it never blocked it before.

You're using an old, unsupported version 2019.8.
Please uninstall it and install the latest version 2021.11 instead.
Please restart your machine and try launching the profiler again, to see if this strange effect is reproducible.
