Hi,
   When I close machine simulation, it returns me to the normal McamX5 GUI, but in a crashed state. The toolbars are missing, The drop down menu's are disabled, and I cannot exit Mastercam. I have to Alt,Ctl, Del out.  I've always had to crash out of Mastercam since I started using Machine Simulation.
I will reinstall Mcam, with Mcam stock toolbars, and see if that works. Anyone else have this issue?

Yup,

You're running out of memory

I can only go in and out of mach sim 2 times, the 3rd leaves me in the same state as you.

If I close everything else down that I have running I do better.

I uninstalled Mcam, then deleted all remaining files (ie. My Mcamx5), reinstalled, and its working now.
I'm now going to install MU1, Verisurf, add-ons, and see what happends.

If you run big or complicated parts, machine sim is so slow to open that I have gone back to using verify. IMO, It is quite badly integrated to Mastercam with all the functions working differently.

I've re-installed everything, and It's all good now. I cannot replicate the issue.
