Thanks for the suggestion about uninstalling and cleaning registry. Tried it with no better luck. I don't think a virtual machine is my best option. I will give up on this pc and revert to Windows 7 on another PC. My son actually has a gaming laptop he is not using anymore that I will load...

It is listed as compatible up to Windows 7 on the support site, and it works fine with 7. On Windows 10, everything is installed. When I click to run, it simply does nothing (at least nothing is visual on the screen). I am pretty sure my fix will be to go back to 7, either by reverting...

Hi all, Old user here (in fact one of the originals and an old Alibre Consultant) that has moved on to other things in life. I stopped my version at 12 with Alibre. I have the Expert version. I had it working on Windows 7, and thought it was working on Windows 10, but now does not work. I...

OK. First I am sorry if these are questions that have been addressed on the forum already. Second, Hi to all my old Alibre user group friends. Hopefully I will be active in this forum again soon. I have not been working in Alibre for awhile. I converted over from the Respository to the Vault...

Re: I may have to try that option, tomorrow. I am going to give tech support a day to respond first. My guess is that is what they will suggest anyway. BTW, I agree that the thin walls should have their own icons, perhaps...

V10 SP1 Load Error Sorry if this is a repeat. I am just getting around to loading V10 SP1 on one of my PCs and am getting the following error that does not let me load the update. Any ideas? No problem loading on my other computer. Error details...

Did use AVG, but switched to Avast (home) for all of the home computers. I like the interface with Avast more (it updates everytime you start up on its own). And, when I have done the free on-line scans for Micro PC-cillin and others, they have not found anything that got past Avast. So, it...

Re: Go Colts! I have faith that they have a chance. I was born and grew up in Indiana, but my wife is from Massachusetts and is a Patriots fan. It is fun in our house when the Colts and Pats meet.

Happy New Year! :D

I have not checked if it was added in version 10, but I don't think that it was: Configurations needs to work for drawing views. Need to be able to change the configuration for the part or assy in a drawing view. The reason is simple: Since you cannot, you pretty much have to start all...

I would like the ability to change the lighting source position, and maybe the intensity. Sometimes I have a good view to work on the model, but the shadows are preventing a good look at all of the features.

Must be a subliminal voice message to go with that swinging motion. I thought I heard "you are getting sleepy, very sleepy..." Next thing I knew I was thinking to buy a Mini Cooper, and drive to the pub for some fish and chips.

Re: Yes, yes, yes. By 2D, you mean for the drawing views. Inventor does it well.

Welcome to the club Jordan :D

Re: UPDATE I have found that with several changes (like one does when new to the software or when you change your mind several times) sometimes a file can act corrupt (not just in Alibre, but also other CAD programs). Your solution of...
