[Virtuous Ten Studio] cybhunter:
Having a problem with VTS 2.6.16.100020 running

What I have done so far:

Pointed the java.exe (within VTS's settings) to B:\Programs\Java\JDK\bin\java.exe, where I installed Java to

copied the apktools version 1.5.2 files into external\apktools

The problem I'm running into is that VTS will not show the xml and/or smali code. within the log the following appears,

uninstalling and reinstalling does not clear the problem

EDIT: Installing a virtual printer resloved the problem.

But as a question, why is VTS dependent upon a printer being installed?
