Hello,

Its reactivation time again for free Draftsight users. Yet again there are problems and now my system and all my legacy work is inaccessible. I have tried all the usual fixes detailed here and have completely removed Draftsight from my machine and reinstalled a completely new copy. Draftsight opens for less than 5 seconds with a blank screen and disappears.

Having used the product for a number of years now there has only been one year when there has not been a problem with this. Dassault have previously promised that this would not happen again.

Having sung the praises of this product in a number of magazine articles I have authored. Feeling just a bit cheated this year and am very glad I did not shell out for a professional licence as I was inclined to do.
