ok, so I have tried re-installing EFT, i have tried running as administrator, all the files are as they are supposed to be, the EFT was working just a couple of weeks ago (thats when i last used it) but now it wont even open, when i try and execute the program it acts as though its loading, as if its GOING to open, but then it idles and does nothing, AS IF its completed the process, when i go into task manager, the process is running, but no program, and no window comes up, so the process runs in the background but i get no actual window to physically do anything with... :/ please help me lol i dont know what to do at all, iv tried a compatability test, iv uninstalled, reinstalled again about 4 times now and it still wont work, also iv tried the other EFT, Pyfa i think it is, after EFT failed utterly on me, that wouldnt even open from the start. I am at a loss, any advice would be appreciated!! :) thanks Sad

You may have a virus that thinks EFT is on it's black list. That is the behavior you describe, it's in the task manager but not visible. Get malwarebytes @ malwarebytes.org (the free one) and run a quick scan...
