It seems like you're experiencing an issue where Spine appears to start but doesn't display the window, effectively freezing your desktop. Here are some steps you can try to resolve this issue:
Update the Launcher: Ensure you have the latest Spine launcher. You can download it from your Spine license page and reinstall it.
Graphics Drivers: Update your graphics drivers to the latest version. Sometimes, outdated drivers can cause display issues with applications.
Single Monitor Setup: If you are using multiple monitors, try disconnecting them and running Spine with only one monitor connected. This has been known to resolve similar issues.
Antivirus Software: Check if any antivirus or anti-malware software is interfering with Spine. Temporarily disable them to see if Spine starts correctly.
Run from Command Prompt: Open a command prompt and navigate to the Spine installation directory, then run Spine.com
. This might provide additional error messages that can help diagnose the issue.
Delete Settings: Try deleting the Spine settings folder to reset any potentially corrupted settings. The folder is located at C:\Users\<your username>\Spine\settings\
.
Check for Interfering Software: Ensure no other software, especially those related to screen sharing or display management, is interfering with Spine.
