After installing Gramps 6.0, the program starts normally. When I close the program and start it again, I get an error message saying that libgcc\_s\_seh-1.dll cannot be found and that I should reinstall the program. When I do that, Gramps runs again until I close it.  
I’m using Win 11 23H2.

Which Windows build are you using? They all use a different version of cx\_Freeze.

| Build | cx\_Freeze version |
| --- | --- |
| GrampsAIO-6.0.0-beta1-1\_win64.exe | 7.2.9 |
| GrampsAIO-6.0.0-beta1-2\_win64.exe | 7.2.8 |
| GrampsAIO-6.0.0-beta1-3\_win64.exe | 7.2.10 |

The first build has a known problem.

Could I ask is it likely there will a .deb of the Beta I was thinking I  
might spend sometime installing from the .zip but then concluded it is  
that long since I did it would make more errors (and waste time) doing this.

The Ubuntu builds failed. We need someone to investigate.

Do you need a developer to investigate or could an unskilled person help  
in anyway

It will need to be a developer or someone familiar with deb files.
