Windows Exe closes on Enter Key

Hello! I'm using Captivate 5 on a Windows 7 64Bit machine. The issue I'm having is when I launch a project published to Windows Executable(Full Screen). It play fine however users are closing the file when they hit the Enter key on their keyboard. Previous .exe projects published in Captivate 2/3 would only exit upon entering the Esc key.

Has anyone experienced this issue?

Thanks.

    I am also having this problem. I am currently on the trial version, and if this problem is not resolved we may need to choose a different software for our eLearning solution.

    I am using Captivate 5 on a Windows 7 machine. I tried downloading the patch and discovered that it was already included in the trial version I had downloaded.

    Thanks for the suggestion. The first patch I already had, and the second one does not apply to me because I did not upgrade from Captivate 4.

    I installed the last one, and it helped a functionality problem I was having with my quizzes when published as SWF. Now they all work except for my sequence question.

    The EXE still closes when I hit enter.

    Hello.  I was curious if a patch or solution has been found for this issue... ?

    It is very difficult to use a text extry object in our lessons.. unless of course we also add a command in the lessons that says, "DO NOT hit the Enter key

    - otherwise this entire program will exit."  Please help!!!
