We have removed the connection client from the deployment for most users. With V8i there does not appear to be any issues with crashing. With Connect, we still have only a small number of seats, testing, and have left connection client installed. It still crashes with it, I could not say if there are more without it or not.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: How can I stop Connected project window from opening on MS startup?</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/390759?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 08 Nov 2016 16:13:39 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:74e5f76f-ad7a-4066-a80a-1f51677dc0b5</guid><dc:creator>Bigean</dc:creator><description>I&amp;#39;m interested as well. Is it really true that uninstalling the Connect Client relates to crashes of MicroStation? Or was this a unique issue?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There seem to be legal issues with some data collected via Connection Client outside U.S., so some of us might be forced to silence that software 100%&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: How can I stop Connected project window from opening on MS startup?</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/389628?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 31 Oct 2016 19:54:49 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:2f5d3d56-1d64-4f3d-9079-c459b27b0941</guid><dc:creator>nbuning41</dc:creator><description>This still work?

We are finding major crashing issues with uninstalling the Connection Client, where SS4 is installed alongside Connect. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&amp;#39;t see why there isn&amp;#39;t a variable to just turn off the connected project window(or if there is, where the hell i can find it), allowing the connection client and license server to run in the background without interfering with MS. If I don&amp;#39;t want to connect projects I shouldn&amp;#39;t be asked every time I open Microstation.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: How can I stop Connected project window from opening on MS startup?</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/362697?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 06 Apr 2016 17:05:44 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:b45cadce-2662-487d-9eaa-171adfc5b24d</guid><dc:creator>Jon Summers</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;The simplest solution is to uninstall &lt;em&gt;Bentley CONNECT&lt;/em&gt; using the Windows &lt;em&gt;Control Panel&lt;/em&gt;.&amp;nbsp; Of course, that suggestion is not necessarily endorsed by Bentley Systems.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Note: &lt;em&gt;Bentley CONNECT&lt;/em&gt; is a separate Windows application from MicroStation.&amp;nbsp; I&amp;#39;m not advising you to uninstall MicroStation CONNECT.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
