The file can be found here: C:\Users\ \AppData\Roaming\Aquila Technology\WakeOnLan\ \WakeOnLan.logįor example: C:\Users\phil\AppData\Roaming\Aquila Technology\WakeOnLan\2.7.5.1\WakeOnLan.log In the unlikely event that WOL crashes without displaying an error message, it will leave a crash log file on your computer. That will be the name of the application that is using port 9. Look for the line following UDP 0.0.0.0:9. The command “Netstat -ab” will list all of the ports that are in use. If you suspect another program is using port 9, you can run netstat to find out which application has the port locked. You should now be able to run WOL without any conflict. Go to Control Panel and disable the “Simple TCP/IP Services” service. This service locks port 9 and will prevent the listener from connecting. However, if you have installed “Simple TCPIP services”, then Windows may be running the “discard” service. This port is available for use on most Windows computers. Wake-on-LAN uses UDP port 9 by default, to send WOL messages. You will not lose any of your host-computer database. Your display parameters will be reset to dafault. To access safe mode, hold down the Control key while starting WOL. Another option would be to use “Reset Window Layout” which is available on the main menu, or the task tray menu. This can be easily fixed by starting in Safe Mode. In rare instances, your display configuration may have changed in such a way that the WOL program is trying to open “off screen”.
