After install of 5.5, trying to change encryption on existing projects results in app crash

I installed Automise 5.5 today, and I have been following the instructions from the blog about how to change the encryption in each project to AES256 in the Project Information. When I try to change the Encryption Algorithm to AES256 then hit OK and try to save the project, the crash screen comes up with “An error occurred in the application”. I can see the bug report, but cannot send it because there is no email set up on the box where this is occurring. This has happened with 3 of the 4 projects I have tried this with. I have tried restarting the application, closing the application, and continuing the application - none of these solve the issue.

The whole reason to install 5.5 was to be able to assign the AES256 algorithm to the projects in our library, so I am hoping that there is an easy fix to this. If there is a way to save the bug report and then email it to you manually, please let me know.

Note - I will be OOO on Friday and Monday, but will be able to try any potential workarounds next week.

Thank you for the help!

Have a look in your %TMP% folder for a bug report.txt file.

If at all possible could you send the project file to support. It sounds like its failing in one of the actions during serialisation, having the project file will make it a lot quicker to find.

P.S - I am travelling for the next few weeks (heading to a conference in Amsterdam and then London) - so really hoping to get this resolved before I leave tomorrow. I’ll see if I can reproduce it here but there are a lot of actions so finding which action is the offending one is going to take time.
