Today, I try to download this last nightly of CB into WSL2 (Ubuntu 24.04) using Firefox browser (just my choice ...    )

BitDefender AV don't control this 7z archive (YES !), by default stored on "$HOME/Downloads".

Into terminal Ubuntu 24.04, I use command "7z" to extract directly to "/mnt/c/CodeBlocks", ... and BD AV detect like previous downloads an malware, and, like Eckart, link to file "CB_soncole_runner.exe" just decompressed ...

I force BD AV to restore this specific file. 

After that, I run CB (after decompress also two dependencies files with MinGW64 and WX DLL), and result is OK.

I don't know why, CB has been very long time to start ... but (be patient) ..., after I can use last nightly of CB normally.

Story is closed !

Thank's.

I lookfor a setings to get the dark mode using this nightly and Windows 11 25H2. It seems there is no such an option. So can you confirm that dark mode is not supported in Windows 11? Is it possible to enable the dark mode in Windows11? Is a long waited feature....

You can use C:B in darkmode. At least 2 ways to obtain this :

• Use darkmode for Windows: C::B will follow Windows mode
• Use a small cmd file to force darkmode: This cmd file is something like:
  

Code

REM To force darkmode (if 0 standard color mode, if 1 follow system mode)
set WX_MSW_DARK_MODE=2
codeblocks.exe

Then you can adjust different colors.
In this example, this codeblocks_DarkMode.cmd file is placed where codeblocks.exe is installed.

set WX_MSW_DARK_MODE=2

Thanks...I wasn't aware of the environment variable WX_MSW_DARK_MODE. Now I set this environment variable and I'm able to switch between the two modes quickly.

[Main Instruction]
A debugging check in this application has failed.

I've found that deleting the .conf file just one time solved this for me.

Pecan, trying to re-customize my default.conf I think I found the root cause of the issue and so a quick way to fix it. The root cause of the debugging checks is a specific setting

Settings->Environment Settings->Notebooks Appearance->Tab Style

If you set the tab style to Firefox2 or Microsoft Visual Studio 7.1 the debugging checks are raised

Uisng default or Simple Tabs no debugging checks are raised.

So to me is enough to change my old settings from Firefox 2 to default to get a working default.conf (my old one). I hope this helps to understand how to fix the issue.
