Virtual FlexPendant Explorer startup problem

in RobotStudio
Im getting an error when opening the FlexPendant Explorer on a virtual FP... this is happening on RS 5.15 with any virtual system running on all versions RW.
 

I get an Error message stating 'Flexpendant Startup problem' when accessing the FP Explorer.

 

Thanks in advance

FYI: Windows 7 32bit

    What result do you get with the FlexPendant of RobotStudio 5.14.03?

    On my old WinXP PC with RS5.14.03.01, flexPendant Explorer works fine...
    But any virtual systems running in RS5.15 on my new Win7 PC fails to open the FlexPendant Explorer, I have tested the VC with both RW5.15 and RW5.14.03.

     

    Even default RW5.15 virtual controllers fail to open the FlexPendant Explorer

     

    Kind regards

    My guess is that the problem is due to some security configuration of your computer environment possibly in relation to .NET Framework. (The Virtual FlexPendant of RobotStudio 5.15 uses a later version of the .NET Framework than that of 5.14.03.)

    Where do you store the systems? Is it perhaps on a location to which the FlexPendant does not have access? Is it on a network drive? The FlexPendant Explorer defaults to the HOME folder of the system. Maybe there is a relation?

    Hi
     

    You are right... Studio installed the Stations and Systems folder to C:UsersgbsiturDocumentsRobotStudio folder. The gbsitur folder has a padlock symbol and I guess is security enalbled...

    I created a new system on the root of C drive and the FP Explore will open... I will pack and Go all stations / systems to another folder.Thumbs Up

     

    Many thanks
