I'm having the same issue and doing the Registry thing did not fix it for me. I tried restarting, turning the computer off and back on, run as admin to no avail. Is there anything else I can try? I'm using Windows 10 and trying to install Starter v5.3 |

Hello, I tried to delete registry key according to article, mentioned by ChristophD, but also without success. This key is created (by installer or some system service) just before the message. I tried to delete it imidiatelly as it is appeared in registry and setup continued without "restart" message. But I had to be very quick.. I have W10 Enterprise 20H2 and tried to install Starter V5.4 HF2. Hope this helps also on other version or systems.. With regards Martin |

Hello Martin, As a tip to others in this predicament, have the same OS and STARTER version. a) Have the Registry editor open in the background It appears that the problem is Windows Defender which cannot be switched off in services.msc or from the task manager. |

Hello, thank you for reply. Yes, you describe it correctly. Edit: Another possibility - clear value of the registry key also helps.
As I wrote, I didn't know which service created the key. And for me it is not possible to find. I had similar problem with antivirus years ago on WinXP. I created new hardware profile with antivirus disabled. I think this is impossible in Win10.. I only tried the procedure I described before and if you are quick it is working. But it is not solution of the problem. With regards Martin |

The solution to delete registry works perfectly fine . Just delete registry and then again start installation. I am attaching batch script, just change the file extension from .txt to .bat and run it as admin AttachmentSimatic_Reinstall_issue.txt (2807 Downloads) |

Hello, deleting registry item and than start installation doesn't help. Registry item is written again just during installation. When you start installation, you have to registry editor opened, visible and when this registry key is written again, you have to immediatelly delete it. I don't know Win11, but I hope it is not so different from Win10. With regards Martin |
