Autoruns 14.04 cannot open (or compare with) the output files it creates ("Failed to load scanned data" error)

Question

Autoruns 14.04 was just released.

I ran it (Autoruns64.exe or Autoruns.exe) as admin on win11, and clicked File|Save and saved the output to a file (it resulted to "Save successful").
If I try to: File|'Open' it, or File|'Compare' with it, I always get "Failed to load scanned data":

Answer 1

I'm glad the issue is fixed in 14.05

This update for Autoruns addresses a bug preventing opening and comparing .arn files.

With 14.04 it couldn't open neither the .arn it created itself nor any .arn I had made with previous AutoRuns versions
(it would give the "Failed to load scanned data" error or crash).

With 14.05 it's working fine again.

Answer 2

Having the same issue for some time now.

Weirdly however, I managed to open one of the saved .arn's mysteriously a few days ago, but the same .arn is not opening now.
