Frequent 'synergys.exe has stopped working', client+server


Recommended Posts

Hi there,

 

I've just downloaded and installed Synergy 64-bit on both a Windows 8.1 64-bit Macbook (server) and Windows 8.1 64-bit PC (client), and while the two work perfectly after starting Synergy, the service seems to crash repeatedly. Is there an obvious fix for this (or more information I can provide)? Cheers!

I have the same issue in Windows 7 64-bit. synergys.exe has stopped working errors, especially when my display locks after inactivity. This happens with both the 64 bit and 32 bit version of v1.8.5-stable-a18eba7

I have similar issue. When sometimes moving between machines, the server seems to error, causing me to lose mouse control. After about 30 seconds it resets itself

I find this is happening more frequently when DNS name resolution is failing or timing out. Abnormal termination of synergys.exe is coinciding with windows logs like these:

Name resolution for the name firefox.com timed out after none of the configured DNS servers responded.
