How can I change APLCore Location?

I recently had an APLCore and it directed me to

‘C:\Windows\System32\aplcore’

when I tried to do

“)COPY C:\Windows\System32\aplcore”

it said ws not found.

So I searched for it manually and found it in

C:\Users\samuel\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Windows\SysWOW64\aplcore

I was wondering if and how can I change the default location for APLCores

How can I block Comment code in Dyalog APL?

I am trying to find/add a keyboard shortcut that allows me to add a ⍝ (comment symbol) at the beginning of each line of a block of code that I have highlighted/selected.

This would save a lot of time…

Using SQAPL and finding my first Dyalog/Windows 8 error…..

SQAPL Project
I have been developing an internal database project which is an issue and general info database system for users within our company.
I am using SQAPL to connect to an access database which has a GUI front end written in APL.
I have made a login form that takes the username does various checks and fetches various data.
This is only partially completed but I have learnt a lot about external integration with applications using Dyalog APL.

Dyalog/Windows 8 Error
We are currently running Windows 8 and Dyalog 13.2.
I recently found a problem that only occurs when running Dyalog in Windows 8.
I have reported the issue to Dyalog(Vince in particular) it only occurred when using ‘Classic Dyalog Mode’ with multiple trace windows.
It happens when I press the ‘SysMenu’ ‘X’ button to close a trace window and it only happens when you do so on the very last trace window that is open.
I get a windows message saying that ‘Dyalog has stopped working’.
I hope some of you find this a useful warning as me and Shaquil lost work because of this particular error.
