Problem with Alibre

[crankshafter]

Hi folks.
When I try to start Alibre to day I got the cryptic message box, "Alibre Design has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience".
I have tried to start the program several times but only getting this massage ??? ???

Someone had the same problem.

No I have not. Seems a remove and reinstall might be in your future.

I've tried something similar a few month ago.

I've told Alibre to use Feature Pattern, where I stepped a hole in 0.1 degree increments over a big distance and that computation requirement overwhelmed the computer .... being impatient I clicked on several things both in Alibre and elsewhere ... result ; a message like yours. So after trying this a few times and getting rather frustrated, I finally managed to open the "lost" design and editing the Feature Pattern to a much larger step value and decrease the number of steps to get the same distance => No problems + a slightly rougher looking toolpath in the finished drawing, witch is of no consequence ....
