If it can't edit the information of BotChief.exe, it will continue to try to edit it until it is successfully modified, which is why it took so long. You can skip this section and manually edit it using a third-party service called ResourceHacker, which you can find in the BotChief Editor's directory.
The problem I encountered a couple of times is that after a successful compilation, a window with a message about this is hidden by the main window, and it seems as if the compilation is still ongoing. Use the key combination to verify this.
Also try disabling options Modify settings.
Thanks for the help Karmagedon
I will report it to the programmer and notify them to check it. Thanks for your feedback.
