Draftsight 2017 SP3 Doesn't Work

Hi all.

 

Just got a brand new laptop running Windows 10 home, which has more than enough hardware to run Draftsight.

 

Downloaded and installed the free version 2017 SP3 x64, went through and entered my details in the activation window, got the activation email link, clicked it and all good. Went to open Draftsight and it tried to load and then get the Draftsight has stopped working error and it closes.

 

Have tried uninstalling and reinstallling. Also some online tricks to rename registry keys, changing registry permissions etc but still won't work.

 

I have a project I need to get finished this week and now I cant open the drawings.

 

Can someone please help urgently?

 

Thanks, Ryan.
