I am getting this message popping up around the office this week. I have been uninstalling and reinstalling to fix it. Any ideas what is causing this?

Answer by Sean Hill

That is a bug in the application that can be fixed with an update. It usually appears when you trigger a certain function that causes a memory overflow and displays the error. Additionally, the error can be caused because of a file that is corrupted in which case a reinstall is recommended to overcome it.

I am using Yak v2.1.2 (18th August 2004) and set "D:\Yak" as default folder path for attachments. All attachments from my Yak are saved to that path automatically in a folder created with date & time in format 'hh-mm-ss_yyyy-mm-dd_xxxx_xx". This causes trouble to find the one among many as the folders are sorted on time instead of date. I want to change the format of folder name to yyyy-mm-dd_hh-mm-ss_xxxx_xx. Is it possible to do so?

Answer by Aiden McLeod

Unfortunately, the Yak program doesn't have that function. You can't change the format of the attachment's name. However, you can sort your files in the attachment folder to be sorted by the date that they were created. To do this, right click on an empty space inside the folder > Sort by and select Data Modified. Also, you should sort them Ascending to be sure that newer ones are first.
