    This is what happens. I have no idea why this happens.

    Does this happen every time? I've never seen anything like this before.

    Maybe you could delete powder.pref, although I have no idea how that would help.

    Maybe something is being blocked, and TPT is crashing attempting to read some bad data.

     Yes, I have reinstalled it from scratch twice. This does happen every time. I get a Memory Read/Write error.
    I have also tried it with relocating the Powdertoy app on my PC, and also running it as Administrator. Both resulted in the same error.

     When you reinstalled, did you reinstall to a completely different folder, and try it with nothing else in it (Copying none of your stamps or saves, or powder.pref)?

    Same! I just press it and bam, nothing

    I try everything and just nothing

     nothing, or an error? If you get literally nothing, then that's a different issue.

    Yeah, nothing. Just zero. Like clicking on a blank screen.

    The button goes up and down and then stops

    Does the game freeze, and do other buttons work as intended?

    If nothing shows up, it may be a networking issue. But usually it would display a big red message in the middle of the screen about it.
