Mathcad 15 stops respoding

Every approximately 10 times I start a Mathcad 15 session under Windows 7 it ends with "mathcad not responding".  I cannot close Mathcad, Task Manager cannot close Mathcad, but mostly I can  stop Mathcad in the process window by ending the process.  Does this happen to anyone else or am I a lone sufferer with  some computer/operating system glitch?  This often happens  when I  have been editing e.g. plots.

I have never seen this (I'm also using Win 7). However, although I often don't reboot my computer for weeks at a time, I also rarely close and restart Mathcad, so maybe I'm just not seeing it.

Hi Richard I often leave Mathcad open so it seems like it's a problem specific to my set up.

Does this happen when you are editing 2D plots, or 3D plots, or both?

Hello David,

so far I've only noticed MathCad crashing when I'm editing some VB code in a control. I'm also running MC15 M040 on a 64 Bit Win7 machine. It seems to be ptaicular to your machine.

Hi David,

Try to repair it Mathcad 15: "Control Panel" --> "Add/Remove" --> right click on Mathcad15 icon and select "Repair".
