The new Emojis in V8.2 Beta are definitely way better as not only is there way more of them, but they now are (in proportion) to the typed text and not too big / tall 
Ps The only issue my bro and i had was that we had to delete our old databases and re-setup our IMAP accounts as the Beta (closed within a few secs) after upgrading, but those sort of things sometimes happen in Beta testing as expected.
Everythingâs working like a charm for me. The integration of the videoconferencing tools is really great.
No problem here with IMAP. I hesitated a bit to install the beta because the release notes mention a database update, but my 8.2 beta (now beta 2, version 8.2.1107) works like a charm as well.
This has been there in the 8.2 beta for a while.
If youâre like me, I am zooming around the application like crazy as soon as it has started looking for any changes and new features. It crashed every time when doing that on first start after an upgrade.
But if you update, then after eM Client has restarted, just leave it alone for a few minutes before you do anything, then in most instances it seems OK.
Shouldnât be like that but I am wondering if there is some additional database conversion going on that was interrupted and causes the shutdown. Of course if you start fresh with a new database as you finally did, that bypasses that issue. I mentioned this in another post that when testing, it is advisable to try both ways. 
As with most betas, there are issues. If you experience anything that does not cause the error submission pop-up, you can send your observations to [email protected]. During an open beta they rely on you communicating with them so that these things can be fixed before the official release.
Yes @Gary i am also thinking the same that the Beta 8.2 is possibly doing some sort of database conversion in the background after upgrading. Either that or its just bugged. Anyway i emailed the testing email address as it happened on two different Win 10 pcs both with Gmail and other IMAP accounts. Its been working perfectly since we re-setup the accounts now upgraded to V8.2.1107
are there any restrictions about running eM Client in a vm? any experiences?
looks like most have the beta version installed on their live environment, with funny moments 
Should run fine in a VM like Oracle Virtual Box
Ps Just click check for update in the menu after you install the Beta to get the latest build which then seems way more stable.
Yes, it runs fine. I used Virtual Box regularly for testing eM Client.
Does anyone have a link for MacOS V8.2 Beta?
This is not something we would expect happening even with the beta. And we are really concerned about this one. So you didnât get our standard error dialog (asking to send the report to us) and the application terminated immediately after the update? If it is the case, can you send as an error report from Windows Event Viewer? That would help us a lot to diagnose it.
Otherwise we are pretty confident about the stability of that beta, so this is something we would really like to target as soon as possible.
Gary, this is weird. Can you take a look in the Windows Event Viewer, if the crash can be found there?
I submitted all the error dialogue popups under my registered email address.
I will have some time on Wednesday 17 March to do some testing, and will recreate it then, and send you any additional info.
Yes when the V8.2.x Beta closes shortly after opening (after the update from V8.1.1060.0 / V8.1.1087), you donât get an error box to even send the error report. You just arrive back at the desktop.
All you can do then is keep opening EMC until it stays open, and then is ok again for a while. This never was an issue with V8.1.x Betas and is happening on both my and my bros Win 10 pcâs build 20H2 (19042.867).
Even with the latest Beta V8.2.1107 after deleting the database completely and re-adding my two IMAP accounts, it will randomly close within a few seconds of opening and (no error box to send the reason).
Ps I donât know where in the âEvent Viewerâ it shows the actual error to send when there is no dialogue box ? I can do some testing on upgrading from V8.1.1060.0 / V8.1.1087 again if someone can advise me where to see the error in Event Log.
Hello, event viewer is here to diagnose such situations.
This error (crash) should be visible under Application section and we are very curious what is inside.
After upgrading to 8.2 beta with free license support, the app crashes when i want to edit my accounts. cant find any error in log.
@Michal_Burger Thanks for the Event Viewer info. I will go back to V8.1 latest builds and restore my old EMC backups and try upgrading again to see if i can replicate the problems & see errors in Event Viewer.
@Michal_Burger Ok My Bro and i have just had eM Client Beta V 8.2.1107 randomly close within a few seconds of opening (with no crash report box) as above mentioned from Upgrading or even when Not upgrading with the new Beta and the below is what is shown in the Event Viewer error report on both Win 10 20H2 computers. Iâve emailed the EMC testing email address with the below error.

Description: The process was terminated due to an internal error in the .NET Runtime at IP 5072668B (50580000) with exit code c0000005.
Hello, which version it was? There was a temporary bug with opening Exchange account preferences that may caused this in 8.2.1100. Iâd recommend updating to 8.2.1107.
that was 8.2.1100 indeed. i temporarly went back to 8.1 and restored backup.
ill try 8.2. 1107 within a few days.
I and my bro have now gone back to V8.1.1087 on both our Win10 pcâs due to the instability of V8.2.1107 Beta. We will wait till a later Beta of V8.2 and test again.
