I love this. It installed easily, everything was intuitive.
Only one BIG problem. It freezes constantly. I mean every few minutes or less.
I have to open the Task Manager (Search button + esc) and shut down Codewaevers and restart.
I'm trying to run Ace Money Lite. I try to keep the browser closed and run no other apps, but that doesn't help.
Any suggestions?
My Chromebook is an Acer C8515-1HT-P39B with 4GB RAM.

You might want to try running your app. with a desktop. That helped me with similar issues in eM Client. If you don't know how to do that, fire up CrossOver and then click once on your app. This opens up the app. "folder" in CrossOver. Now, click on the same icon once more, not the one within the folder. This will bring you to the configuration area. Click on the cog wheel near the top, right and then check the box for "Desktop". Now you can click the arrow near the top left to get back to the main CrossOver screen. Fire up your app now and see if it is any more stable. Hope that helps ...

That seems to have solved the problem. 😀
I have been using it for more than four hours and it hasn't froze on me once.
Thank you so much for the detailed instructions on how to do this!
