And interestingly, this might be a Windows issue. I just got another update to 26100.4770 and the crash is gone.

Crash on 24H2 26100.4652

Worth repeating here...thank you! I am so happy to have this back. No workaround or substitute is as nice as VDGS!

Woo-hoo! It's working again. Thank you Simon!

I realize this is an old thread, but I'm having exactly the same issue. I've got one Windows 11 machine where it is working perfectly; that was a a new install of Windows 11. On my laptop which was a Windows 10 -> Windows 11 upgrade, nothing happens. I briefly get the busy hourglass as it launches, but then nothing. Task Manager doesn't show it running. I tried downloading a fresh copy, unblocking, then extracting, but nada. I found some instructions on doing process audits (https://superuser.com/questions/603226/does-windows-log-programs-that-have-been-run-called),...

VDGS won't open, even unblocked, on Windows 11

The icon is a 3x3 grid, but my desktop is 3x4 (rows x columns). This leads to some interesting visual miscues on where I am. Would it be possible to generate an icon that matches the grid configuration?

So, yes, this is kind of a dead thread, but... Is there any hope of getting JPEG2000 back into Mapper? The USGS 1m image files are really only usable/viewable with the JPEG2000 files. With those, I've been able to map out small structures that are only 2-4 meters on a side (like lean-tos and tent platforms in a campground) which is very useful for detail maps.
