I am using the trial version of FontCreator 10.1.0.2272 and every time I save my project, close, and reopen it, I receive an error stating:
There was an error while opening the project file:

The project file is corrupt.

It might be possible to recover most of your project. Do you want to continue?

I can confirm that many Unicode characters such as dingbats, symbols and pictographs, etc. are blank while in FontCreator 9.x, there is no such issue with project files. This issue started appearing in version 10 and has improved a bit in 10.1, but still has issues. I don't want to purchase FontCreator if this is going to happen.

I am running Windows 10 Professional.

We are only aware of such issues caused by using illegal copies of our software. In such case people deliberately look for and download cracked versions of our software. A waste of time, as they don't work, and even worse, they contain malware.
