WIngs 3D work fine at my Toshiba netbook with Win 7 ver.

I have the same problem. The first time I try to launch Wings 3D, it works. The other fifty hundread times I try to launch it, it just shows me a second of the console, makes a process called erl.exe, and not starts the program. It appears to be fixed for another single go when I clear the folder in appData/Roaming, but is there any other way?
P.S. The username is written in Russian, maybe that's the problem?

If the directory and/or file name uses no standard ASCII you can have problem. The problem is related to how it is stored in the preferences file (reading it causes the error). I believe the support to Unicode should be added to preferences file in the next release.
By now, avoiding to use non ASCII charset for the names will help with this issue. Take a look at the post #10 - the last portion where I show how to redirect the preferences path. You can add those parameters to your shortcut in Windows.
I hope this help you.
