    I just downloaded bitcoin on Windows 7 and when I click on Address Book, I get this error:

    ../../src/msw/toplevel.cpp(1079): assert "Assert failure" failed in SetIcons(): icon bundle doesn't contain any suitable icon

    Do you want to stop the program?

    You can also choose [Cancel] to suppress further warnings.

    Help > About shows: "Bitcoin version 0.3.20.2 BETA"

    Have you tested this on 0.3.21? What method did you use to download?

    Just downloaded 0.3.21-beta from http://www.bitcoin.org/ and it still happens

    I have had the same issue with 0.3.21 as well as with the new 0.3.22-rc2. Clicking 'Cancel' allows the Address Book to open. The error does not appear on subsequent opening of the address book until bitcoin is restarted.

    I am using Windows 7 x64.

    Confirm this bug exist in 0.3.21 windows 7 64 bit aswell.

    This is a bug with high DPI settings, but it shouldn't appear on a standard 96 DPI machine. Might you have some kind of theme which makes the icons in the corner of your windows larger?

    I don't think I have any settings different from whatever the Windows 7 defaults are

    Have you tried 0.3.22 rc5+?

  9. ghost commented at 9:39 PM on May 28, 2011: none

    Issue appears to be fixed in 0.3.22 rc5.
