I found out what crashes Abilon: displaying submenus. (That’ll teach them using personalized menus instead of respecting Windows UI themes.) If I only use keyboard shortcuts, no more crashes.

So I can go back to recommending it: it’s the best free aggregator for Windows — and it also happens to be better than all the shareware aggregators I tried. You’ll only have to know it’s incompatible with something I must have installed in the last two weeks. (But I don’t know what: I installed a lot of stuff lately, as I needed to toy around.)

P.S. Oh, yeah, there’s that thing I installed two weeks ago: the latest Matrox drivers. I discovered the “prevent menus from spanning multiple screens because it’s really inconvenient” option, checked it and thought it was great. Only, it crashes Abilon when submenus are displayed.

No wonder I was the only one having this problem, then.

Want to know when I post new content to my blog? It's a simple as registering for free to an RSS aggregator (Feedly, NewsBlur, Inoreader, …) and adding www.garoo.net to your feeds (or www.garoo.net if you want to subscribe to all my topics). We don't need newsletters, and we don't need Twitter; RSS still exists.

Tiens tiens... J'ai voulu passer sur Abilon 2.1: plus de menus Importer / Exporter. Impossible de faire un essai sérieux, car je ne vais pas ressaisir tous les flux! Pourtant, je n'avais pas eu le souci avec le 2.0. Aucune idée de la raison de cette panne ?
