Thanks for your bug report. I have not been able to reproduce this issue here so far. I followed these steps:

1) Started up a clean install of Windows 11
2) Downloaded mIRC v7.78 from the mIRC website
3) Ran the mirc778.exe installer and installed mIRC to the C:\Program Files (x86)\mIRC folder.
4) Ran mIRC by double-clicking on the mIRC icon on the desktop.

If you install mIRC to clean, empty folder in your Windows Downloads folder, using the "Portable" option in the installer, and run mIRC from there, do you still see the same issue?

At which point do you see the issue? When you first run mIRC? Before the About dialog appears on startup? When the Options dialog opens? When you connect to a server?
