Hello 

Does anyone have a problem using the keyboard shortcut: Control/X ?

When I try to cut either one task or multiple tasks at once using Control/X, my MLO MLO for Windows (v4.4.1), MLO always immediately crashes.

Workarounds:
- Mouse right-click ==> cut , then  right-click ==> paste works fine.
- Also, select tasks then left click and drag also works fine.

Both of these workarounds are slightly slower though.

Anyone else having the same problem?

This problem is getting worse. 
MLO for Windows (v4.4.1) is now crashing when I right-click and select Cut. 
It doesn't always seem to do it but it's happening enough to be pretty irritating 

I am now wondering if my data has become corrupted. Is there any way of cleaning up my data without losing my settings? e.g. Things like format...

Hi, John. I didn't reply before because my results were somewhat
indeterminate. Ctrl/X did not crash for me but it didn't cut either. I
probably have some sort of conflicting hotkey situation and I d rather
not invest the time to figure tat out right now

But this situation of increasing numbers of things causing you to crash
sounds evil. I wonder, if you make a new profile and throw in some test
tasks, then reboot Windows, coming back to the test profile, would
Ctrl/X still crash?

Anyhow, this sounds like the kind of thing where you should not waste
your time chatting with fellow users like us, and you should be going to
sup...@mylifeorganized.net for help

I started a thread in August about it https://goo.gl/YtM262

Andrey has looked into it. As an interim measure he made a build for me in which the bug doesn't happen. I am not sure what happens when the application gets updated. I may have to live with the bug again or stay with the build I have.

So John, perhaps contact Andrey about this.

Hope this helps.

Hi Dwight - 

Yes I have already alerted support. 
Out of interest, yes it still crashes if I try the same thing in a completely new file.

No big deal. I can live with it but it's slightly annoying...

Thanks for the logs, John. I will look into it and will send a new beta.

I still cannot reproduce the issue and only a few users reported it.
