Hello @Buratino,

What version of Windows are you using?

I believe there might have been a previous install of an older version of ARC.

1) uninstall ARC in control panel -> Program and features

2) navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)

3) Delete the EZ-Robot Inc folder in C:\Program Fles (x86)

4) Reboot

5) reinstall from a fresh MSI downloaded from https://synthiam.com/Software
