I have been using darkGDK for a while now, and it has always worked fine and has had no problems. When I tried to debug a file, it said that the program worked, but it wouldn't load. All it said was- Unable to start program.... (the picture of the screen is attached.)

I don't know why this is happening, it was working fine before. I then thought it was the program so i debugged a different file and I got the same error.

Does anyone know what the problem is adn how to solve it?

To be honest, you shouldn't need to run it as debug. It just plain doesn't work well with it. I've never even needed to run as debug.

Yeah, but when I tried to run the .exe, it said that this file isn't a valid windows application....

Yeah. Just one of the errors on the list of a bad compile. I don't recommend trying debug unless you really need to debug it.

Change to release mode and rebuild your solution.

Build it in release mode. Then, click Ctrl+F5.

Well, now I don't have to do that, when I restarted my computer it worked again...

Thanks anyways.

I'm just saying it's best to always build in release mode and run it with Ctrl+F5. It's faster than debug mode.
