RS closes when setting up virtual IRC5 controller

silasagnew

Hello all,

I have the same problem as Alvaro (in this thread: https://forums.robotstudio.com/discussion/12741/rs-closes-when-inserting-irc5-controller ). However, my antivirus is not blocking anything and I did get an exception in the log.
 
Here is is:

----EXCEPTION BEGIN----

Could not find file 'C:\ProgramData\ABB\RobotStudio\7.x\4c42e7d6d31b1905321646ae27ee6d636807c416\01234-01234-01234-01234-01234.cny'.

I'd appreciate any help resolving this.

Thanks,

Hello there!

I would suggest trying a clean uninstallation & reinstallation of RobotStudio first.

1. In your computer, go to Settings -> Apps -> Installed apps -> RobotStudio -> Press the 3 dots on the right -> Choose Modify.
2. Click on Uninstall and click Next
3. Check the box Clean Uninstall in the uninstallation wizard and click on remove.
