Refresh RobotWare:
- Open RobotStudio -> Add-ins tab -> uninstall RW 6.XX
- In windows explorer: Go to %localappdata%\ABB Industrial IT\Robotics IT\RobotWare, move all the content related with 6.XX out of the folder.For example move the content 1 step up to %localappdata%\ABB Industrial IT\Robotics IT\, renaming the folders is not enough.You can delete the contents if you don't have anything that you want to save/backup.The folders are named ....._6.XX.XXXX.. it's usually 4-8 of them.
- Go to %PROGRAMDATA%\ABB Industrial IT\Robotics IT\DistributionPackagesdelete all content related to RW 6.XX
- Reinstall the RW 6.XX from RS Add-ins tab.
- In installation manager, try to create a new system.
EDIT: Make sure your RobotWare version is lower or equal to your RobotStudio version, if not please upgrade your RobotStudio version.
