I want to open the file with Mathcad Prime 5.0, but it doesn't work and failed.

And I found the web page to solved my problem.

It's still failed, how do I suppose to do?

 

The file was created by Mathcad 15 M045.

 

Please~

Thank you so much!!!

You can't open a Mathcad 15 file in Prime directly, you have to convert the file first and then open the converted file (*.mcdx).

The link you provided indicates, that you know that, correct? And may I guess that you experience problems at the attempt to convert the file. Did you try the resolution tips given in the article you linked to? The converter needs a current version of Mathcad 15 being installed and licensed. The license for Prime also entitles you to use real Mathcad(15) using the very same license file.

Dear Werner

 

I've done all I can. 

It's not worked.

You can attach your MC15 worksheet here and we will convert it to the version you need.

I am having a similar issue. I have Mathcad 15 installed and licensed, and I'm trying to convert a worksheet using Prime 7.0 converter.  The error says it cannot start the converter - check if .net 3.5 is enabled, which it is.

 

I really don't see how uploading a worksheet for someone else to convert is an accepted solution.  I can't share my file.

Verify that .Net Framework 3.5 Windows feature is enabled:

  • Open Control panel > Programs and Features > Turn Windows Features on or off,
  • Ensure all the checkboxes are checked as below.
