===If I open the profile then the program crashes===
'''Description:''' After creating a profile, OSACAR crashes when the user first attempts to open that profile.
<br>'''Possible fault mechanism:''' OSCAR has three different graphics engines available -- OpenGL, ANGLE, and Software engine. OpenGL is the default but does not work with some older computers. The problem may be overcome by using an alternative graphic engine.

'''[Any version of OSCAR]''' ''Disclaimer: Editing the Windows registry can cause damage to your computer including the possibility that it will no longer work. Undertake this procedure at your own risk.'' 1. Download [https://www.sleepfiles.com/OSCAR/Patch/fixgraphics.reg FixGraphics.reg], open Windows Explorer, navigate to where you saved the file, and double click on FixGraphcs.reg to update the registry. 2. You will get a variety of warning messages from Microsoft about the danger of editing the registry. Go ahead and allow the registry changes to be made. 3. Restart OSCAR and see if that helps. The registry script forces use of the Software engine. Later, if you want to try the ANGLE engine, go to File/Preferences/Appearance and select the ANGLE engine. If it doesn't work after you do that, just run the registry script again and you'll be back to the software engine.
