X7 and CodeMeter?

[shazam/TPP]

i may have missed this, but why is codemeter installed with X7? for the Hasp?

[gcode]

I believe Code Meter is used for licensing the MT module

I've been told the HASP is going away sometime in the future and Code Meter

will replace it... and they are integrating it into the software in baby steps

At any rate, DO NOT install it.. or you will be doing your whole X7 install over

to late, at least i know why i am getting errors trying to open X7. thanks Tom

Gcode you mean uninstall it correct? as that has caused issues.

Don't uninstall CodeMeter....there are places in the Mastercam code that depend on it.

 

The need to say something about this in the Info box on the down load site

or have a pop up warning during install as people don't recognize it, uninstall it then wonder why

they are having trouble with X7

Its a link to a beta site. I put it there to refresh Jay's memory

 

Bottom line... DO NOT uninstall CodeMeter.. you will be doing a complete X7 uninstall/reinstall if you do

well uninstalled all of X7 and codemeter, deleted all folders, and defragmented my hard disk. Started a fresh install and it did not give me a choice on installing the codemeter. can i just uninstall that? or go in my administrative tools and dis-able it like rocheey1?? Was this covered somewhere in the stickies?

i think i know what may have happened, i broke the cardinal rule and used migration on one folder yesterday didn't restart it and had no problem yesterday, only until this morning after starting up my computer. that needs to be removed as an option . oh well

Codemeter messed up my computer so I couldn't log on. Is there some way to install x7 without it?

How did Codemeter mess up your computer?

[John St]

I kept getting an error message that said "Windows could not compile your user information". I had to boot my computer from a restore point.

OK, so you know it was Codemeter how?

 

I have seen MANY systems that have underlying issues that show up at installation of something,

 

I'm curious how you arrive at the issue?

 

It "almost" sounds like a profile that was corrupt

[John St]

I haven't had problems with my profile after I restored my computer and I didn't reinstall x7.

 

My computer hasn't had problems since. That was like three months ago.

Be that as it may, none of the has ANY empirical data that Codemeter was your issue

[shazam/TPP]

if i remember right, the anti-virus was the problem for many. some had to use a different anti-virus.

[John St]

It might have been the other software I installed around that time because when I restored my computer, it got rid of the other software as well.

 

Are there any reports of this happening, or is it just me?

[Johnny M]

Is there anyway of reinstalling Codemeter..... Without installing Mastercam 7 all over again......

[crazy^millman]

Yes just do a repair and it will put what is needed back.
