Click OK To Terminate
(OP)
We've possibly all have seen this error "Click OK To Terminate". I was wondering what is the MAIN cause and how do we eliminate it?? I've found this huge PITA to come up when I do not need it the most... Any suggestions????

I create a CATSettings directory for each version.
In the user environment editor - change the CATSettings to this new folder (CATSettings18)
Start Catia and set your menus and hotkeys. This is very important - do not migrate old settings to the new version. You can do this, it will work most of the time, not recommended.
Once you have your Catia configured, exit Catia to save the settings, copy the CATSettings18 directory to create a backup.
That should take care of the settings. Once and a while, replace the CATSettings18 directory with the backup. Sometimes settings get corrupt.
As for the OK to terminate - 64bit machines is the answer. I have found Catia instability at 75% ram use on 32bit machines. This is on certified IBM Zpro stations with 4GB ram - 3GB switch.......
A new 64bit machine is cheap in comparison to downtime, reload, crash, stability.... all the factors that will frustrate an operator.

However what I would do is start with clean CATSettings and then customize it, then make a backup of that CATSettings and when you have to clean out the CATSettings just Copy/Paste the back up in the CATSettings.

CATIA admin can setup reference CATSettings in a shared folder.
CATIA users get ref CATSettings from admin in a local user folder. This are the CATSettings you clean (the local user folder)
Next time the user start CATIA, he will get CATSettings from admin (clean ones)
So you can define your own ENVIRONMENT (as admin) and clean users CATSettings whenever you want.
See online doc for more info about ENVIRONMENT...
I am sure you can find some document also on the internet.

- Corrupt CATSettings (CATIA was trying to write one while saving)
- Loading too much data (Memory Errors)
- Corrupt Drafting Standards XML file (I used a text editor rather than the CATIA Editor)
- Missing Drafting Standards XML file while creating a Drawing (I mistyped the CATCollectionStandards path in the Environment)
- Corrupt geometry in a CATPart (run CATDUA often)
- CATIA Bugs (submit a PMR)
- Random weird stuff
Note: these are in no particular order
