MicroStation Find/Replace Tool is not working. After enabling the command MicroStation crashes.

When I try to use the find/replace option, MicroStation crashes. I got the same issue previously, but got it rectified by restoring the MicroStation to defaults. But this time it failed.

  • Hi Leonard,

    The version, that I'm using is 10.17.01.62.

    Kindly find the response to your questions below. If you could provide an email id, I can send the zipped files as I couldn't attach the zip folders here.



    Answer these FAQs.

    1)  When did this problem started occurring? - More than a week, I'm not sure what action has triggered this issue.

    2)  What are the recent changes made in environment? - None

    3)  Is it a new installation - No

    4)  Is it file specific? ZIP the file share it to us. - No, it is a universal issue not related to specific file.

    5)  Are you accessing the file from the network. Try a simple file from local drives (C or D) - Files are placed in both the location (network / local)


    Thanks

    Gokul

  • Try the following one at a time and try to reproduce the crash.

    Backup UPF file and/or Pref folder.

    Step 1:

    • Close the product
      •   Backup the following UPF file from the following location. Rename Personal.upf to Personal.bak
           C:\Users\{UserName}\AppData\Local\Bentley\MicroStation\10.0.0\prefs\Personal.upf
      •   When you reopen the product, a new UPF file is created
      •   Open MicroStation and test

     

    Step 2:

    • Do also try to rename prefs folder to prefs-backup, restart MicroStation and test.

        C:\Users\{UserName}\AppData\Local\Bentley\MicroStation\10.0.0\prefs\

        C:\Users\{UserName}\AppData\Local\Bentley\MicroStation\10.0.0\prefs-backup\

  • I really appreciate the time and effort you put into this but unfortunately none of the above methods worked for me.
