Hi,

I am facing an issue while launching Revit 2014. As I launch prgram it gives a fatal error. I had noticed this issue arises because of a Device Lock program. If I remove this program it works fine. But as per our policy we can't remove/ disable Device Lock.

Is there any solution to use Revit 2014 program with Device Lock?

Thanks in Advance.

Clearly DeviceLock is blocking some sort of access that Autodesk needs to launch the program. It's very possible that you found a security bug that is otherwise unknown without the restriction. In all honesty, you might have to submit a ticket to either Autodesk, DeviceLock, or both to determine the reasoning.
