Have installed the version 7.1.4, means, copied the .exe file from the zip file to the existing Vara installation folder. The new version 7.1.4 starts eventually, but after ending and restarting Vara HF two times. Always. I've added a text file with a logging what seams to have happened. I am aware, that my Windows 7 (32 bit) is an old operation system and VarAC may no longer support that windows version. But I have to stick with that windows version due to other requirements. Therefore I switched back to VarAC 7.0.8 which works fine and I am happy with. Please don't consider this a a bug report rather than just an information. I do not need a fix, as I have a previous workinh version. Thank you. DL2iac.

Same issue with v7.3. The last windows 7 compatible version is 7.0.8

same issue here, but downgrading software version to 7.08 or previous v6 doesn't solve the issue and I don't understand the reason... I had also crash of Varac during qso and VarAC32 thread doesn't disappear from windows task manager.
I have tried to use VARA FM modem instead just for test and no issue at all even with latest Varac version, I suspect there is something related to tcp socket communication with VARA HF

There is a solution for this. on slow PCs - it takes time for VARA to start. You make this wait time longer by adjusting this parameter under the VarAC settings. I recommend setting to 10 seconds in your case
VarahfLaunchDelaySeconds=5
