Problem:

When I open my XIN file, I am unable to see any of my preferences or styles - it is as if the XIN file is blank.

Solution:

This is a problem that we have seen in support only a handful of times. It has proved difficult to troubleshoot and solve in the past. However, the following tips have had success in resolving this issues in a couple of instances.

Troubleshooting Steps:

Perform a clean removal of the Power InRoads/InRoads product using the instructions below:
communities.bentley.com/.../265073
If running layered InRoads, uninstall MicroStation using the uninstall function in the Windows Control Panel.
Download and install the following two DLLs from the Microsoft website. They should be in the C:\Windows\system32 directory on a 32bit machine or C:\Windows\SysWOW64 on a 64bit machine. Even if they already exist on the machine, it may be worthwhile to download and reinstall them, since these are the controls InRoads uses to read and write the XML data in the XIN file. Please refer the the installation instructions that can be found on the Microsoft website.
1. msxml4.dll - http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=15697
2. msxml6.dll - http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=3988
Register the DLL files.
Reinstall MicroStation (if running layered InRoads)
Reinstall Power InRoads/InRoads
Test to see if the issue if corrected.
If not, log into the machine using an administrator log-in and see if the same issue exists. If you are able to log on as administrator and the problem is resolved, you may need to create a new user profile for the individual that is experiencing the problem.
