Pop up windows on toolpath creation

I have just installed HSM with Solidworks and the install process seems to have gone fine. I see that when I start Solidworks that the HSM add in is loaded. I can create the job set up but then when I try to make any toolpath there are a bunch of windows that pop up. To me it looks like they are the background process' that are being shown on the screen. I can finish the toolpath creation but the windows do not go away. Any thoughts are helpful

ThanksIMG_20170524_123424992_HDR.jpg

What install did you use?

 

We had an issue where icons where beeing mapped to the wrong commands with an early release of HSMWorks 2018.

 

Either the issue cropped up again of you somehow have the old installer.

I've tried both the 2017 and 2018 installers. I've tried it on another
computer with the same installer and it worked fine.
I did notice that on the computer with the issue, the commands are out of
place on a few drop down menu from the icons. Like the 'create stroke text'
is on the turning menu and not the utilities.

thanks for the feedback.  We must have another obscure case of this.

 

I am going to loop the dev team in.  We may need some more specific details on the PC machine that isn't working.

Which version of HSMWorks 2018 did you install?

 

I'm not able to reproduce the issue on any of my PC's so we need as much information as possible.
