Hi, I'm a total APP newbie, using the trial license.  i get good stacks so far.  Butwhen I use star reduction tool, I can get a very nice result but cannot seem to save the result. when I click on save stars reduced/removed, the pop up to selecta directory shows  up.  I select the directory, then the pop up for image loader for star reduction comes up and nothing happens.  If i click cancel in the pop up, my star reduced image dissapears.  Probably an error on my part being a newbie, what have I missed here?

@cheman Sorry to hear about your trouble. What OS are you on? Also, could you take a few screenshots of the different popups and post them here?

@cheman Thanks for the information and no need for the screenshots. As far as I know, Windows 11 isn't supported yet. I have asked Mabula to give an answer to this post.

Upon further testing, I  did get the star reducer tool to save the image.   It just took it a while  and I did not notice if there was anykind of progress bar indicating it was loading.  Once loaded I was able to save .   tool seems to do a good job once finding appropriate settings.

first attempt with APP and star reduce.  It looks like Ive introduced some ringing around the stars.  Not too  bad for jumping in blindly. Now to read instructions and watch some videos
