Pro/E Stops Launching on New Window 7 Workstation
Pro/Users,
I was wondering if someone else has seen this. A couple weeks back we moved one of our NC programmers to a new Windows 7, 64 bit workstation. After running WF4 M070 successfully for about a week, all of the sudden it would no longer launch. Xtop.exe never appeared in the task manager. Looked at the firewall settings and nothing appeared to be getting blocked. We could launch other builds of Pro like M120 and M150 though. Since I have higher administrative rights, I logged in for testing and the different builds of Pro/E and Pro/NC launched without a hitch. When we switched users back to the NC programmer and attempted to launch M070, it worked. Something must be getting reset. Things seemed good for couple more days and then it suddenly stopped working again (fyi, had several reboots during the working streak). The switching of the users worked again. This band-aid solution is going to get old in a hurry. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

I could be wrong, but I thought that WF4 M110 and above are the only
versions compatible with Windows 7 64-bit.
We are running M140 without issues.
I will suggest to upgrade your build version.

I'm looking at moving to the FTP method of transferring files between the server and the worker.
Anyone done this, have any tips?

One of my users got a new computer with Windows 7 on it. I've been looking on the web for a driver for our large plotter. No luck yet.
Any suggestions?
Printer = Designjet 755cm
OS = Windows 7
Autocad is his main program
