Hi, Im new at the forum, Im having a problem with Mastercam 2017 in windows 10
the problem is that I've already installed twice mastercam 2017 and when I try to verify the machining (simulate)
gives me this error " C-Hook not found...  C:/ Program files/mcam2017/chooks/MachSim.DLL "

I would start by answering gcode's questions above.

this may help - taken from the knowledge base section at mastercam.com

 

Problem

The MachSim.DLL C-Hook was not found when launching Mastercam Simulator.

Cause

Mastercam Simulator requires files from the Windows media pack to be present. With the N and KN versions of Windows this package is part of an optional install causing Simulator to not launch. 

Solution

Install the Media Feature Pack provided by Microsoft.
