Crashes - QNC

What is QNC, and why does it keep crashing my system? Can I delete it?

Don't delete Quincy, just disable him.

QNC aka Quincy, is a debugger very similar to Dr. Watson. He does log crashes in a file called Notes.RIP. You need to get the RIP file annotater and the associated files for your specific version from the Lotus website. It's more often just an annoyance than a big problem.

Before I tell you how to disable Quincy, there is a huge disclaimer here:

ONLY DISABLE QNC ON CLIENTS/WORKSTATIONS. DON'T EVER EVER EVER DISABLE QNC ON A SERVER. IF YOU START TO ENCOUNTER PROBLEMS ON YOUR SERVER, LOTUS SUPPORT WILL WANT THE NOTES.RIP FILE.

Simply go the command line, and from the same directory as your Notes executables, type QNC -U. This uninstalls quincy as the default debugger. To reinstall QNC, simply type QNC -I.
