Photoshop Blend Modes Files

Your file only contained one frame. You need to have the frames created before you can jump to them.

I see nothing wrong. It loads the level value from the data.ini. Changed it to 14 and restarted the application and it showed 14.

What are you trying to do?

Just the regular Windows Defender on Windows 10 Pro. Could be a problem from an older update as the file in question was already in the installation folder.

This popped up after I started the beta installer. I had to manually remove the file from quarantine and the installer went through the installation process without any issues.

Edit:...

144Hz here, BenQ XL2411 also on 144Hz in Windows. I see no ghosting around the sprite but that dither on the head gives some blinking effect when moved to fast (100+fps set) due to the contrast.

Can you upload an example so we can check?

You can do this using the file object.

Start of frame
+ File(File):Appdir$ + "my.ini" exists
--> Delete the file Appdir$ + "my.ini"
