I've recently started the Openspan 8.0 training and I'm facing this issue during interrogation of the sample ( CRM ) application provided with Openspan training package. I'm using a windows 10 VM.

While clicking on Start Interrogation, system is generating an exception and the application is not launched. Exception is :

"Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt."

If I go to the app directory and manually launch the application by clicking on CRM.exe file, it runs perfectly. If I change the target value of .os file to point to a different application, I'm able to launch that new application. But this application is not launching and I'm not able to complete the interrogation.

Details of exception are --
