My Icon on Desktop is in place, but without image. When I try to run app, I get an "Application Error 0xc0000005". When I try to uninstall, uninstaller doesnt exist and when I try to install again, Installer run into 40% then stop, but seems to be running - but without any further progress.

What is the solution here pls?

Personally, i feel very anoying to have a new version almost everyday or so. A lot of time in past, my icon on Main Windows Panel disapper after new version, would be nice to update weekly or monthy or make some choices in the setting.

  I found one. My workflowy doesnt work under profile A, but under profile B was OK. So I found the instalation in path:

  C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Programs\WorkFlowy

   

  I remove the folder workflowy (where is a lot of missing files, included "Uninstall WorkFlowy.exe") and copy/paste here the folder from working profile, when i open workflowy it scream on me something about sync issue and need to reload, so i rather run the unistaller and run new installation.

   

  Everything fine now.

  I have the same error code and cannot open WorkFlowy, and uninstall can't find WorkFlowy for clean uninstall.

  Would like to continue using desktop version because loads faster and does not require two-factor authorization.

  Please help.

  Hi Clarke,

  Would you try uninstalling all traces of WorkFlowy completely with this software?:

  ... and then reinstalling?:
