Patran and windows 7 problem

Patran and windows 7 problem

Patran and windows 7 problem

(OP)
Hello, I have a problem with Patran on windows 7. I had student version installed, worked well. Now I have access to full version so I uninstalled student version and install new one. Unfortunately I get error "Error reported from application Session File" and bellow "Error opening file patran
File Already Exists". I bet it happens because fresh patran installation still somehow see old files / register or something. Ofcourse I uninstalled completely using CCleaner + remove patran folder.

Just for test I tried install student edition again and...the same problem ;/


What's wrong, how to clean old patran files completely ?


Thanks.

RE: Patran and windows 7 problem

It is usually related to the write authority of the Patran start up folder. You can change the start up folder of Patran by right click the Patran icon, and select 'Properties'.
