i have a similar issue: the keyboard shortcuts page in the prefs menu doesn't load anymore, it says: "could not creat preferences page, bad allocation".

Does it have something to do with default ui or columns ui or is it just me? I tried to reinstall foobar and different components but it didn't do the job.

thanks.

Does that also happen for you on a clean foobar2000 installation? Additionally, could you post a list of your component? To get this list, go to the Components page in preferences and press the Copy button located in the upper right corner.

It used to work perfectly, it only happened when i switched to 0.9.5 beta x (or maybe when i switched to the last colums ui version, as it was at the same time, but i doubt it).

Note: i had a ton of single keyboard shortcuts (both global and not global), if that might help.

I'll get you a list of components as soon as i can.

Note : i am spending my time on an audio player forum at work.

thanks.
