Hi!<br><br>
I got curious the other day about QGIS 2.6 and installed it on my
desktop. I had 2.2 already installed sinc before. Everything went fine
except that the plug-ins stopped working, at least Grass did so. When I
start the 2.2 the following appears:<br><br>

</font>I installed the 2.6 on another hard disk (D:) on my desktop. The
same problems apply to 2.6 as well.<br>
My operating system is Windows 7.<br><br>
So for the moment I use 2.2 on my laptop but I would love to have it back
on my desktop with its large screen  and flash disk.<br><br>
Thanks in advance<br><br>
