Bugs: time to clean CATSettings?
Bugs: time to clean CATSettings?
(OP)
Hi all,
I´ve using the same W2K Catia V5R10 install for some months now, and the buggy things I´ve seen so far are:
-2 or 3 sudden W2K restart (one every 3 weeks, I can cope with that
-the message "Brocken link" always with the same assembly (and a very simple one, for what`s worth)
-some weird process that I must kill manually when I turn the computer off ( a 3 letter name I don´t remember)
But it seems to me I´ve getting more and more "weird behaviours" of these.
Is this normal, since I progressively get deeper in the program, or is it time to do the CatSettings cleaning I´ve heard of?
And if so, please tell me how!
Thanks!

RE: Bugs: time to clean CATSettings?
To clean out your CATSettings you need to make sure that hidden files are visible (Folder options in any windows explorer window).
Go to;-
C:\Documents and settings\**user name**\Local Settings\Application Data\Dassault Systemes\
(At least thats what I think the directory is!!)
In this directory you will find the CATSettings folder which should be deleted or renamed (depends on your personal choice, but I would suggest you should rename in case you find the problems don't go away).
Regards an good luck
