cTrader 3.7 Update Error #495654: Can not create instance.
cTrader 3.7 Update Error #495654: Can not create instance.
06 Feb 2020, 21:43
Hey Guys,
Just had an update from my broker for the 3.7 cTrader Desktop Version. I can now longer run my cBot. Gives the following error:
06/02/2020 19:40:11.004 | Error #495654: Can not create instance.
Is there a reason why this update has broken my cBot? I am referenceing NuGet packages like Telegram and JSON etc.

Have you been able to fix this problem? if it is the static parameters causing the issue then this nees to be fixed!!!!! i need the static paramaters for my cBot to function properly. I am not in a position to re-write over 7000 lines of code for one error that broke my cBot after an update.

Same problem here,Error #495654: Can not create instance and i can't run my cBot after 3.7 update.
Everytime they add something new,they break something else.
Edit:
Seems you can no longer add static to parameters,for me that was the reason.
Spotware,I know you guys are doing your best but debug harder,as I said above everytime you add something you also break something else,most of the time it is not a big problem but this time it is.
How can I trust and put money on something that changes its behavior once in a while without any notice?
