Digital Utility 4.0 program suddenly not working

Pat_H · 11-26-2012, 07:09 AM

I have a Pentax K-x and use the Digital Cameral Utility 4 program. As of this morning, it's suddenly not working. No idea why, but it won't load up and I get a "runtime" error every time I try to load it.

I logged onto the Pentax site and updated the program (potentially an error, I know), but no luck.

Any ideas? I have no idea what to do.

I bet you'd closed it with some shots ticked. One day they will fix that. Search for a hidden file called Checkinfo.ini and delete it.

That was it. Thanks!

I ended up going in and finding the photo under a search for "Pentax". Once I deleted it, the program started working right away.
