Milkybar_Kid Posted September 21, 2015 at 04:26 AM Report Posted September 21, 2015 at 04:26 AM Hello, I use Google Pinyin for typing traditional Chinese and MS Pinyin for typing simplified. Google Pinyin has a tendency to crash at least once a day. Even though I always send an error report when prompted to do so the situation still hasn't improved. Does this happen to anyone else? If this keeps happening I'll have to use another IME. Can anyone recommend an alternative? I love Google Pinyin because of its simplicity so I'd like to find something similar (if not better). Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks Quote
Demonic_Duck Posted September 21, 2015 at 05:38 AM Report Posted September 21, 2015 at 05:38 AM I've never had any problems with it crashing on either Windows 7 or Windows 8. It will probably help people to help you if you mention what OS you're using. Quote
New Members abf Posted September 21, 2015 at 08:53 AM New Members Report Posted September 21, 2015 at 08:53 AM I used Google pinyin in Windows 8.1 and on Windows 10 without any problems. Can you give more details? Quote

New Members ch1nglish Posted September 21, 2015 at 04:15 PM New Members Report Posted September 21, 2015 at 04:15 PM I have not have any problems with it either. Maybe you could try 搜狗 pinyin (pinyin.sogou.com) I use that on my mobile. Quote
gato Posted September 21, 2015 at 11:29 PM Report Posted September 21, 2015 at 11:29 PM Google pinyin works me on Windows 8 and 7. Sougou pinyin has ads. Quote

Milkybar_Kid Posted September 24, 2015 at 10:35 AM Author Report Posted September 24, 2015 at 10:35 AM Thanks for all the replies I'm using windows 10. I will investigate further. Quote
roddy Posted September 24, 2015 at 11:01 AM Report Posted September 24, 2015 at 11:01 AM No updates since 2013, I note, and they only say it supports Win 8. That said I use it fine in Windows 10, bar some bizarre bug when writing a comment in a Word doc where it just goes off and types by itself. Quote
Shelley Posted September 24, 2015 at 11:15 AM Report Posted September 24, 2015 at 11:15 AM where it just goes off and types by itself. oh the rise of the machines has begun Does it produce anything sensible? Quote
