1.6.03 upgrade wont open files

Win 10 PCs, both working perfectly with previous version.

Just installed 1.6.03 on two PCs. One works perfectly, the other will not open files and will not allow design. The mouse will click and open various icons and drop downs along the top, but will not allow creation of shapes etc.

The mouse works perfectly in other applications.

I have installed and rebooted, no joy.

I uninstalled and installed an earlier version and now have the same problem with that.

Any help appreciated.

Try exporting your preferences from the working PC then importing into non working one.

That worked perfectly on previous version.

Now going to attempt the upgrade again, see how that goes.

Any idea why it wouldn’t just use those preferences anyway, as it did on the other PC?

They were both using the same pref file.

Thanks

ps upgrade went perfectly.

Maybe Windows file/directory protection access.
Try installing as Administrator.

Just installed with no problems. Weird that effectively with no changes (previous version was on same prefs as the successful pc) it would work this time but not before.

Thanks for help, I have orders to get out this afternoon, of course the failed upgrade was on the laser connected pc.
