I just downloaded and bought the license for Construct 2. Wanted to try its features out this morning but when I load the Space Blaster game and click "run layout", I get a dialog box that pops up and says "Starting Preview" at that point I'm stuck and nothing I do to stop it works other than going to Task Manager and killing it. Do I need to configure something before it works?

Looks like I need to add what browser to preview in. Its under the Properties "bar"- Configuration Settings-Preview Browser in case any other noobies need to know.

In the project properties, you might check which browser is selected.

You can force one of the predefined browser options (Preview is supposed to launch a browser. If it doesn't, there's a browser issue, try another one).

Be sure that your computer/system/browsers match the system requirements.

Sometime users might need to configure their ports like in this topic.

Let us know if you still can't run C2.

EDIT: ha it appears I was a bit slow to write my post.

Glad you're set. Enjoy C2 <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle">
