OrCAD Capture crashes on start up

mwaskett

Hi All,

I'm having trouble with OrCAD capture v16.6 (latest hotfix), in which the program refuses to open without crashing instantly. I'm not getting any error messages, it just freezes when I open it and doesn't respond. It will not close unless I end the task from task manager. This started happening a couple of days ago, but no new programs have been installed recently so it can't be that that's causing it. I've uninstalled any updates that have been installed since it started happening as well.

I'm using Windows 8.1, and I've been able to use the program fine up until a couple of days ago.

Any ideas on why this is happening, and what I can do to fix it?

Thanks

    The described procedure above has no affect. Orcad still hang up when started. Im my registry there was no entry like \CaptureWorkSpace\ . Could this maybe be the problem. Thanks for yor help.
