  1. I have tried using IT but they have had no luck. I was the person to get it working when we had trouble with installing X+ for X6, but for some reason this latest version have me hell. Yes posting my email probably might have helped lol. my email address is my forum username with @gmail.com after it Are you referring to the new setup sheets built into Mastercam X7? We have thought about switching to using those instead of X+ setup sheets. I will talk to our CAM supplier about getting some training on the new features of X7.
  2. I have tried with MC not running. I have even tried on a Virtual Machine with no MC installed and manually created paths. I am speculating that part of them problem is when the installer tries to save files in the 'chooks' folder it does not have full path directory with the drive letter. Yet when the installer saves files into the 'documents' directory is has the full path with drive letter and this part of the install works perfect. However the installer is working for others so I'm wondering why I can't get it to. I know I could get it working if someone was willing to zip up the files in the \chooks\X+\ directory and the X+.ft file to send to me.
  3. I am having trouble installing X+ for X7. I am getting an error message when the installer tries to write files. The Error Message is: "Error opening file for writing: \chooks\X+\lang.dll" If I press 'Ignore' I keep getting an error message for each .dll file.The installer won't write any of the .dll files that are supposed to be in the chooks\X+ folder and the file X+.ft (which it tries to put directly in the chooks folder). However when it moves to the C:\User\Public\Documents\X+ directory, it writes all those file with no issue. We are used to encountering problems with the X+ installer on our PC's at work because they have tight permissions. Yet we found a work around by installing X+ on my laptop and transferring the files to the other PC's and renaming some directories in the files. This worked great for X+ on X6 yet I can't get it to work for the X7 version of X+. I have tried many different methods with the installer and have given up. My laptop and the PC's at work use Win 7, but I even setup a virtual machine with Win XP to try and get the installer to output the files. Has anyone had trouble like this? Is there anyone willing to zip up the files in the \chooks\X+\ directory and the X+.ft file to send to me?
