BUG FIX: Suspend and Resume not working correctly on Windows 8 and Windows 10 [27884]

This article applies to:

E-Prime 3.0

This bug was introduced in E-Prime 3.0.3.31 (Update 1).

This bug was corrected in E-Prime 3.0.3.80 (Update 2).

Symptoms

E-Run doesn't suspend when when attempting to suspend and resume the experiment when running under Windows 8/10. 

Detail

E-Run does not suspend when when the DeviceManager.Suspend method is called.  E-Run also fails to suspend if E-Run is configured to prompt prior to aborting (i.e. Rte.SystemAbortPromptEnabled = True), the Ctrl+Alt+Shift abort experiment key sequence is invoked and the user answers 'no' when prompted to abort the experiment.  

NOTE: Use of Suspend/Resume with E-Prime Extensions is not supported.

Solution

Update to E-Prime 3.0.3.80.
