Clear description of the problem - try and include as much information as possible, including what button and mappings you are having problems with (if applicable).: First time installation of XMBC on this laptop. It's in a corporate setting with high security. Was able to get temporary admin rights to install.
Bottom line issue: XMBC does not start no matter what I do. I can try to run it from the Start menu, or use the Command Window to start it with a variety of command line options. It immediately exits and the icon never appears on the task bar or in the hidden set, and Task Manager does not show that it is running. It is installed as a Windows Service and is enabled, according to msconfig.
There was an initial issue that the installation did not leave a XMBCSettings.xml in my user profile folder. Log file showed a missing settings file. I copied an old one from a few years ago into the profile folder, which fixed that issue.
Still XMBC does not start, same symptoms (no icon, nothing in Task Manager). Cannot get it running. I ran it manually from Command Window using the /debug option, see below (actual user name blanked out for security purposes).
