ctrlXWorks1.18.2 : crask Plc engineering when trying to open

[Fred74]

1) When I try to opne the ctrlXPlcEngineering the process never ends.

2) So I tried to repair the installation and I get the attached error report.

3) I tried also to uninstall the ctrlXWorks. and install it again => Same behaviour than 1)

Could you help me please

Hello,

in ctrlX PLC Engineering (WRK-V-0118.2) the VisualElemRepository Assembly is installed in Version=4.2.0.0.
Can you try to clean the PluginCache files (C:\ProgramData\AP\PlugInCaches\StudioPlc-*.cache)?

Did this solve your problem? If not, can you provide some more information when the crash dialog appears, did you do a clean new installation or did you install additional packages. How did you start the ctrlX PLC Engineering (Shortcut or via ctlrX WORKS?)

Regards, Oliver

Hello, 

I have the same issue when installing 1.20. 

Deleting the cache did not solve the problem.

For me a complete uninstall and a new install solved the problem. Before the uninstall I manually deleted the caches, so maybe this also has an impact.
