Ok, I have windows 7 and 2 programs which close themselfs as soon as I try to start them. Both programs worked before without problem!

First one is Wegame, I never had problems using it, but one day (1-2 month ago or so) it just stopped working! I click the shortcut, I see the login-screen, I login, I see the UI for 0.1 sec and then it disappears and the thread is gone.
I always thought it's a wegame problem, contacted support, but never got an answer! So I thought "fuck you wegame", I'll wait for the newest version to come out!

The second program is Winamp, which worked until today! It was the last thing I closed yesterday before going to sleep and I didn't change anything in the options or wherever! Now when I doubleclick the shortcut on my desktop I see the winamp ui for 0.1 sec and then it just disappears, thread gone.

Redownloading the installer and reinstalling didn't worked for both!

I googled and played a bit with the win7 troubleshooting, but they are still not working!

So any ideas?

Compatibility mode?

That was part of the win7 troubleshooting, so no doesn't change anything! :/

Edit: Ok I'm not quite sure why my programs all of the sudden stoped working and I'm sure it will happen again in the future, but what helped was uninstall them with Revo Uninstaller (http://www.revouninstaller.com/) (the free version of course). This program makes sure that all related files and registry entries will be deleted, what in my case solved the problem!
