Hi there~After installing and running the AI starter, I got an error message, what should I do?

Error message :

Had to be fast copying this as the DOS BOX disappears after a few seconds !!! ( WHY?)
Anyway I always make sure aistarter is not running before I launch it ( killed in Task Manager)
What's going on here ?
aistarter had been running and launching the windows Emulator fine ( but the windows emulator was not changing when I changed text in a block.
It was changing when emulating to my phone.

Looks like to fix I have to RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR to at least runs aistarter without it aborting with128 error and disappearing !
