For v2.0 I made a major change in compilation: I used MS Visual C++ instead of MinGW.

I'll recompile the sourcecode again with MinGW later and would kindly ask you to retest with the new build.

This is the only thing that could explain this behaviour as there are no other critical changes since v1.19.

Thanks, Zenju

I can confirm the bug! It seems to appear only if synchronization finishes while the application is not visible (in background).

I'll look into this and find a solution ASAP.

Thanks, Zenju

Indeed I found a bug when synchronization finishes: At this point there is a mismatch between actual and displayed data for a very, very, very small timeframe. (But it's enough to crash from time to time)

The bug has been there all the time, but became visible not before compiling with MS Visual C++.
I'm glad to have eliminated this nasty little thing and immediately uploaded a hotfix: v2.0.1

Please kindly retest, you shouldn't face problems anymore!

Best regards, Zenju

When will you upload the file? I can only see the 2.0 version.

The new version v2.1 is already uploaded since yesterday evening. But apperently sourceforge currently has some serious issues with the new webdesign.

Not only is v2.1 not visible although I can see it in release management, also there is still v1.19 shown as primary download, which also should be v2.1 (or at least 2.0!) Damn it!

I'll open a ticket on sourceforge.
