This is a fresh setup of Win 7 x86. MP3_tagstudio installs with the usual initial start up glitch (having to do with the virtual store, I believe) and seems to work properly except for the Help/About which locks MP3TS up solid. I've tried the compatibility mode troubleshooter and it's no better.
For all the hoo-haa about Win 7, I've seen far more broken software than ever happened with Vista. It's very frustrating and time consuming. MP3TS, Adobe Audition, Garmin GPS software, and several others. I feel sorry for all the developers that have to deal with all the extra work caused by these issues. What a waste of time.

Thanks for your sympathy.
The about box issue actually seems related to the Windows Vista/Windows 7 "Aero" graphical interface (not sure if it happens for everyone though), which makes the graphical fancy stuff of the about box in Mp3/Tag Studio take like 100 times longer to complete all of a sudden (sounds like a standard Microsoft update to me
).The about box will actually appear eventually though, if you only wait a minute or too after clicking it in the menu.
