I went to install CAM 8 for the 30 day trial, but it wont open. I double-click it on the desktop and it loads a bit then nothing, it wont open at all. I haven't found anyone with this problem and I've been looking for hours for a solution but so far I haven't found one.

8.6.0. is the latest version
Fred Grover, Champion
Kayakman I am not sure if that will fix the problem he is having as far as I know all the new update did was add the ability to upload your videos directly to Vimeo. I could be wrong though. It would not be the first time in life as I am not perfect and never expect to be.
Update Correction: Straight from their version update page. Here is what was fixed in the latest upgrade of Camtasia Studio 8:
Version 8
25 August, 2015: Camtasia Studio 8.6.0
But just in case the latest version does not fix the porblem for you Minecrafty then here is the support information below and you may want to contact them as it is hard to say if you are not getting any error message and we cannot see what is happening.

I'm running Camtasia 8.6.0 and I also have the difficulty of opening the studio software sometimes.
There are various things I can do to eventually get the software to open but it's a frustrating process and I feel helpless to control it.
Here's the strategy list that sometimes works for me:
- Close down any instances of Camtasia Studio running in the task manager
- Close down any instances of the Camtasia recorder
- Close down Chrome windows and it's toolbar application
- Open Camtasia Studio 8 using "Run as Administrator" (this solution would be fine except I can't access network drives)
- Properly exit Camtasia Studio 8 from the file menu
- Wait 10 seconds
- Open Camtasia Studio normally
- Cross fingers...
Eventually this seems to work for me. It seems to have started once I upgraded to Windows 10 although that was about the same time I upgraded to the latest version of Camtasia as well...
EDIT: Thankfully this problem has now gone away on it's own! (2015-12-08) I didn't update Camtasia or do anything else consciously to fix it. I'm assuming it was something external that was interfering with it being able to open that got automatically updated.

My version of Camtasia (8.6) has stopped running. I start the program, the splash screen pops up, then it says "Camtasia has stopped working..." and closes.
I noticed this right after Microsoft .NET framework 4.7 was installed. I am going to try uninstalling that, to see if it helps.

"An unhandled Microsoft .NET Framework exception occurred in CamtasiaStudio.exe [2884]." <-- this is the message if I choose to "Debug."
(Edited)
I tried repairing .NET Framework 4.7, restarted the computer, still doesn't work. I will uninstall 4.7 now...
