Hello. 

we have two davis 346 and we used it with dv-gui
but recently the software is no longer accepting operations.
(we can see the  the same problem on other PCs)
A screen like the one below keeps appearing and eventually freezes.
please tell me what is the problem.

Thank you!

What OS are you on? Windows? What's your username and language settings? Did the failures only start with DV 1.3.0 released Saturday or already with the previous 1.2.5?

thank you for your help!

I'm using windows Japanese but my username is English.
I was already facing the problem before the update and I tried update 1.3.0, but it didn't resolve.

Okay, our support for non-ASCII (English) characters on Windows is not
yet complete. We've tested English Windows with paths/usernames
containing other alphabets, but not yet fully non-English Windows.
I believe some kind of message is sent to the GUI with Japanese
characters in it in your case, and the GUI can't properly handle them.
This all goes back to Windows using UTF-16 internally to represent non-
ASCII characters, while everyone else, including all UI packages, use
UTF-8. We're tracking this in issue:
https://gitlab.com/inivation/dv/dv-runtime/-/issues/351
I've added the additional details of this case to it.
There realistically won't be a quick solution to this, as a work-around
you can try setting up your Windows to be fully English.
