AutosilkUtils in 17.2

I suspect eDave may be the best person to answer, but any feedback is welcome. After upgrading to 17.2 from 16.6, invoking Allegro shows the following error in the console:

E- *Error* loadContext: could not open file - "64bit/AutosilkUtils_public.cxt"

Is there an updated utility for 17.2? Perhaps I'm doing something wrong?

    Hi Ole,

    Encryption with a password provides read protection but I have read that it is not "strong".
    Context files have the big advantage of being quicker to load and are great for stand-alone utilities.

    Cheers,
    Dave
