A glitch in mathcad

Hi everyone. Today I faced a very weird issue in Mathcad.

When I define any variable with unit "m" my mathcad is multiplying by 3/m by itself. I was using my mathcad files without any issue but yesterday I updated my windows from 7 to 10 and since then this crazy issue is appearing.

I mean when I write A:=3m. then when I type A=, it shows A=9. Or when I define a variable as B:= 3 kNm, then it reverts it back automatically to B=9kN

Does anyone knows what is the reason of this issue?

And you sure don't have a region somewhere which says m:=3 ?

BTW, are you using real Mathcad (15 or below) or just Prime?

What do you see if you type "m=" ?

And what, if you type "mm=" ?

Hi Werner,

Thanks for the reply I found a variable "m" was defined somewhere in Mathcad. I fixed it and is working.
