2021.2 CAD++ constantly crashing

2021.2 CAD++ Service Pack 6 constantly crashing

I can usually open about 4-5 different programs and then PCDMIS completely crashes. The programs aren't open at the same time. I'll open one, run, edit, or nothing, close it and then open up a new one that I need to work on. After about 3-5 times PCDMIS crashes and I have to restart the entire computer to get PCDMIS to start up again.

Is this something anyone else is dealing with?

Latest pc dmis versions are super buggy. My old 2016 CAD version hasn't crashed on me in months. I would rather have that on all our computers than the latest junk from Hexagon.

My experience is the opposite - the earlier versions are moody and cannibalistic and the later ones far better when it comes to stability.

What about latest ones though? 2021 R2 & 2022? It is them we have problems with. Hexagon added a myriad of stuff to these versions we will never use only helped increased complexity & no surprise crashes. If that continues we'll be looking outside of Hexagon when needing another cmm.

i hate to say it but despite the crashes, PCDMIS is still a superior product to just about all other softwares out there. The reporting ability alone is legions better than anything else out there. A few softwares do a few small things better, but overall as a package, PCDMIS has them all beat.

V3.7MR4 is about the best. I can go MONTHS without any issues.
That being said, programming a round slot will once in a while, cause Pcdmis to 'close without warning', but once it does that, you are good until the next time you reboot the computer.
