Hi

My TIA Portal was working fine just until yesterday when after a computer crash, compiling any HMI device even on single project and only a single screen would give me a vague error suggesting that, 'my user does not belong to the "SIMATIC HMI" group.' Even after I manually added my User to HMI group in my local users, it wasn't fixed. I restarted my PC, recreated a same project, added myself to the rest of groups containing the word 'SIMATIC' or 'HMI', and still I get the same error.

The project I was designing before that catastrophic crash was an HMI with a single screen trying to be controlled with a PLC. What I was doing is that, I tried to tag the HMI with the output of the PLC. Now every time I try to tag an HMI object it keeps crashing, hands down.

My TIA version is 13. And my PC runs with a 64 bit Windows 7 Ultimate. And again, this problem didn't use to occur; maybe some form of recovery would fix my problem. 

Hello 

Expand the Alarm below to see all the fault text maybe it can help you to catch the problem..

What is your TiaPortal Version?

Professional V13 SP1

The error won't pop up anything, it just stays there when I click it.

It keeps crashing now, and I can't get to the same error now. Even an empty screen HMI Professional RT (PC station) screen would not simulate at all now...saying 'Failed to start simulation' :(

Hello Again 

Firstly you have to repair it from the setup of the Tia Portal it self 

Secondly you have to Update it to Step7 Pro V13 SP UPD8 

 Thanks It is really appreciated
