Hi Jim, just to verify - it is PatchVerx that you are having trouble with?
Is it the standalone version or the plugin to WireCAD?
Are there any application log messages that can give us a hint?
Finally, are you patched up to the latest version (5.2.22.0303)??
Thanks,
Chris

Yes, PatchVerx is the problem child here. I am using it stand alone in this instance. I fired it up as per usual and there was a message that there was an update. It asked if I wanted to download and install the update and I said yes. I tried installing the update and that's when things went nuts. I have now uninstalled the program and my computer is running normally again. If you would, I'd like to install a fresh copy of the program and try it again. If you need my key # I can provide it, though it's probably in my account.

Chris;
Ok, I'm back in the saddle at work and I am needing my PatchVerx program to run again. Can you send me a fresh copy of the program, or a link to it? We're expanding our router and installing new patchbays so I'm in need of this.

Never mind! I found the download page and am installing a fresh copy. Sorry about that.

Negative. I have uninstalled PatchVerx and deleted all the old versions and folders and bits, then downloaded a new copy of the latest and greatest and it just will not run. I get spinning blue circles that make it look like it's trying, but no joy. I thought maybe a program I had added lately, a printer utility from Brady that we use to print labels with our new M611 printer, might be interfering so I uninstalled it , rebooted and tried again with the same results. So, any ideas?

OK, I give up. Let's hook up so I can see what is going on there.
I just tried to call the number on file and went to voice mail.
Give a call when you are in front of it and we will figure this out.

Hooked up and found the key database to be corrupt.
Downloaded and ran: https://www.wirecad.com/downloads/index.php?dir=pv/&file=PV5_DB_PACKER.zip
This fixed the error.
