OrCad PCB Editor 16.6, Artwork window do not show

Hello everyone.

I am using software as in topic in version 16.6.

Today during normal work artwork button stopped working.

Window to set and generate artworks do not appear on the screen. I know that the button works, in the left down corner (actual command in written) I can see that ARTWORK command is active.

Is here someone who can help me?

I am using windows 10, I have tried to reinstall software and it do not help. All other functions and pop up windows work fine.

Thank in advance.

OK close the tools and open a Windows File Explorer window, in the address bar type %home% followed by a return. This opens your HOME folder, in here descend into the pcbenv folder and locate and delete the allegro.geo file. Restart the tools and try again.
