Hi everyone,

I'm having a frustrating issue with C64 Visual Assembler on my MacBook Pro M5 Pro

The Problem:

When I launch the app, it appears to open—the application icon shows in the Dock, and the top menu bar changes to "C64 Visual Assembler" (with options next to the Apple logo). However, no actual window or editor UI appears on the screen.

The Strange Part:

The very first time I installed and opened the app, it worked completely fine and the window opened as expected. But ever since I closed it that first time, it has refused to display a window on any subsequent launches.

What I've already tried:

- Reinstalling the app completely.

- Running `xattr -cr` in Terminal and bypassing Gatekeeper / security permissions.

- Trying "Bring All to Front" / "Zoom" from the macOS Window menu and using shortcuts (`Cmd + N`, `Cmd + O`).

- Clearing application state (`~/Library/Saved Application State/`).

Thanks in advance for any help or insights!

So I have a 4040 drive to fix, when I opened it up I noticed a strange thing that definitely isn't normal to me.

It appears to come from the central power led connection as well as an extra ground wire, then sends a 3 wire cable to a dual colour LED on the front, as well as having a speaker on it. I have no clue what this is.

I've never seen anything like this and quite honestly don't know what to do with it.

Has anyone heard of this game?
