Many of you already figured this out, but, for the record, here is something you may need to know. If you have issues with WriteLog crashing or otherwise misbehaving in new ways after an upgrade to version 12.88, please try this before filling a support request:

Download and install this update to the Microsoft Visual C++ libraries:

    https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x86.exe

The WriteLog installer 12.88 is quite apparently failing to update those libraries at least on some systems and for reasons we haven't figured out yet.

Thanks,
Wayne, W5XD
