Crash with UNLOAD tip command

Has anyone had an issue with PC-DMIS crashing while the CMM is executing an UNLOAD tip command? It has been happening in DCC mode and also using Control E. Does anyone have an idea to what is going on or why? Thank you!

    Is this what is crashing?
    Have you tried establishing the settings editor to the dummy "UNLOAD" probe name, as the help file dictates?

    ProbeFileUsedToForceUnloadWithNoPickup



    Set this value to the name of a special probe that you use at the end of the measurement routine for purposes of unloading the probe without picking one up.

    The procedure to use this option follows:
    1. Create a probe file with a name that won't be used on the machine. For example, a file named "unload" could be used in a command line as LOADPROB/UNLOAD.
    2. Make sure the probe created in step 1 is NOT assigned to any port in a probe changer.
    3. Set this registry entry to the name of that probe. The name is not case sensitive.

    With this setup you can leave the other warnings set up the way you normally would for typical operation, but you should not get prompted about manually loading or unloading this special probe.

    Entry Name: ProbeFileUsedToForceUnloadWithNoPickup

    Entry Type: Character String value specifying probe name. The default value is None ( ).
