PowerMill opens a project read-only

PowerMill opens a project read-only and can only be saved using 'Saved Project As'.

This can happen if a project closes unexpectedly or if it is still open on another PC / server.

Solution:

If saving under a different name is undesirable, confirm that the project is the only version open and then do the following:

1. Select the HOME tab.
2. Open the command window by selecting ECHO COMMANDS.
3. In the command window,type: project claim.
4. Press ENTER followed by YES to claim the project .
5. The user can now save their project.

Inventor hanging on startup

The first thing I try when Autodesk software such as Inventor hangs on startup, is to delete the temporary files in Windows:

1.       Press the Windows Button + R to open the "Run" dialog box.

2.       Enter this text: %temp%

3.       Click "OK." This will open your temp folder.

4.       Press Ctrl + A to select all.

5.       Press "Delete" on your keyboard and click "Yes" to confirm.

6.       All temporary files will now be deleted
