    Default Weird logo window on open...

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    I get this little window on my primary monitor (Revit opens on secondary) after Revit has fully opened. It's there for 2010, 2011 and 2012. It just started one day.

    Any ideas?

    can you grab the lower right corner and stretch it out? Maybe see what the title bar says that way? Probably some sort of error message (obviously).

    I'm famous for suggesting the obvious, but you'd be amazed how many people go "oh yeah...duh". Sometimes you can't see the forest for the trees.

    I have no idea what it would be. Some file it can't find I suspect. Does the program function properly when you close it?

    Lol, yeah it's all good. "Why won't computer come on??" "Is the power strip turned on?" "Umm....yeah.... *flick* ...Weird, now it works!" lol, done that.

    Program functions just fine. It just started one day. There were no system changes, no program changes. Came in one morning, flipped on the computer, opened it up and there's this little window. =/ It's weird.

    haha...I don't even have to close it, I can leave it sitting there open, even.

    I wonder if it has something to do with my keyboard? Thinking about it, it came about around the same time I installed the drivers for my keyboard (Lycosa). Hmm...

    Ah...so there was a small change afterall. Helps to talk this stuff out. Computers have something called Random Access Memory. My wife says I have a randomly accessed memory. Sometimes things come back up, sometimes they don't.

    Mostly do drafting related to manufacturing. From doing site layouts with proposed updates, additions and renovations to be budgeted and submitted for bid, to updating and changing existing drawings to reflect maintenance and repair/revision work done on site.

    You can check your startup folder and check the startup tab in msconfig. Check for any offending entries. Sounds like some sort of malware or a pop-up.

    Does it only appear after opening Revit? I.e. if you start up your computer and not open Revit, does it appear?
