Thanks!  I've been in touch with Badge Help and it's being worked on.  An update should be out in a few days (according to their email).

Was wondering that several of mine have that but they work fine

I do just ignore it but was just curious what it meant.

I was getting the invalid context handle in Mahjong Safari auto, but since the update it is not there.  Maybe they are onto something and will fix the others.

I get that message also but it has never affected the program use. The other message I get when playing the Battle Phlinx auto is "Unknown Stagger State".   :o

Again though, the auto still works but like Gator I wonder what it means.  ???
