Problems with X+ setup sheets on X3

[TheNev]

Hey guys, been lurking for a little while, and got a problem I can't figure out on my own.

 

I run MC X3, and we use the X+ setup sheets.

A few days ago, my x+ toolbar was replaced by a bunch of mastercam "X" logos. The description of the icon does not match the icon's function.

 

If I uninstall X+ delete all related folders, then re-download and reinstall, it works perfectly until I shut down my computer for the day. The next day, it goes right back to the "X" logos and I can't get X+ to work until I uninstall, delete, reinstall etc.

 

Any ideas as to what I can do to keep my X+ where it's supposed to be? I've already talked to my software rep, and he couldn't figure it out either.

 

I'm a n00b to programming (started in January) but I graduated from a Ranken Tech last may, and we did learn MCam, but I'm still not that experienced.

 

Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Nobody knows anything about this?

Try Installing the MU1 update for X3.?

 

There is a lot of 3rd party software in mastercam,

and it may behave differently from p.c. to p.c.

Where can I get the MU1 update?

Mastercam.com

 

Downloads section

are you simple user or administrator on your windows

 

if you are a simple user , get X+ installed by an administrator , this will keep the settings after a reboot

 

i got the same problem in the past

JParis, Thanks.

 

Goldorak: I am a user, but x+ is always still installed on my computer after a reboot. Mastercam doesn't recognize it I guess. If I delete the folders then reinstall, it works fine until I restart the computer.

I think this is what Golderak stated because if its not working on restart you might not have permissions to the folder its in.

I've got a problem with this too.....well sorta, it's totally unrelated other than that it has to do with the HTML Setup sheet.

 

I just downloaded it from emastercam, and tried to install it on my PC with XP Pro and X3. I get an error when trying to install:

 

"Error: Unable to detect Mastercam installation directory. Ensure you have Administrator rights and that Mastercam is properly installed."

 

I have administration rights, and I definitely know Mastercam is installed. Any ideas?
