Text: Simple Not Working on the New Version

You must use the English language in a bug report. If you do not speak English please use a translation service instead of trying your best to write English. Thank you

  • What is your operating system? Windows 11

(If you are using Linux, you must state how you installed Shotcut as there are too many builds and packages. In general, we do not make the build installed by your distribution package manager unless it installs the Snap. The developers only build, test, run, and support the builds shown on our download page.)

  • What is your Shotcut version (see Help > About Shotcut)? 26.6.25

  • Can you repeat the problem? If so, what are the steps? Yes

(Please be specific and use the names as seen in Shotcut, preferably English. Include a screenshot or screen recording if you can. Also, you can attach logs from either View > Application Log or right-click a job and choose View Log.)

I get this pop up

When I cancel it out and load Shotcut, the Text Simple filter won’t load

Never heard of Text Simple Shape…
Did you mean Mask: Simple Shape?

Sorry, Text: Simple

I ended up reverting to the previous version for now

If you still have that .dll around can you check it’s version and/or checksum?

I’ll try to reinstall the new version again

This is due to Windows Security > App & browser control > Smart App Control and probably will not be fixed by us. Or maybe Microsoft does something to trust it over time. You can either turn it off or use the Microsoft Store version.

OK, after putzing around a bit, all you need to do is

  • Download installer
  • Right-click installer
  • Choose Properties
  • Check the Unblock checkbox
  • Then run the installer

So far no issues with blocked DLL files
