This is very annoying and time consuming. Please tell me how to fix this. I have already re-associated the .STD files to open with STAAD, but still it fails to open. Also all the units preference are reversed from metric to imperial.
Which STAAD version are you using? If not 21.00.02.30, please try to upgrade to this version and see if that helps.
21.00.02.30
All of my posts today are regarding this new update.
Open the Registry Editor (regedit), navigate to Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.STD and check if STAADPro.Document is set as Data value for the (Default) Name:
Then navigate to Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\STAADPro.Document\shell\open\command and check if C:\Program Files\Bentley\Engineering\STAAD.Pro CONNECT Edition\STAAD\Bentley.Staad.exe "%1" is set as Data value for the (Default) Name:
Both are the same value you indicated and still the problem is the same.
