+ install tiaportal 15.1 upd3.

+use the Reset_WinCC.vbs sript in the Bin Installtation Folder of WinCC.

that could not be fixed.

Help me.

Hi frkn001,

You need to change version of WinCC RT Prof. to V16.0 as SCADA program is developed in V15.1.

May be attached pic will help you.

Hi AmolG,

I tried change the version but its not possible. There is only V16. version. I attached picture.

 Hi frkn001 ,

Is it possible to you to give information regarding 

 1.Which windows build installed on your PC.

 2.Which TIA  Software installed on PC (Snapshot from Installed Software).

 3.Attach Snapshot for error (When you starting Run time).

 4.Try to create different new WinCC project and start Run time simulation.

 5.Is there any previous TIA WinCC Professional software installed on your PC e.g TIA 15.1/15 .        If yes may be these files are not properly uninstalled from your PC.

Hi frkn001,

Please click on  [snip] for sample program.I have tested it on my system and it is working well.

Kindly test  it on your PC and check whether it is working or not.

If yes then there may be problem in your previous project configuration.

If no then there will be problem in your software installation.

Hi again AmolG,

Thank you for your help.

I tried your sample program but unfortunately I got same error. Maybe you're  right. Problem is my PC or my windows. Because same software (TIA16 Prof) installed my friend PC and working good. But my PC not working.

In addition I have one question. I attached snapshot. Question is, in WinCC advance software RT button active and I use this button. But WinCC prof RT button is inactive and start simulation button active. Whats the difference between them. 

Thank you.

 Hi ,

This Link may help you !!

"To be able to use the configure system to the full and start Runtime, you need the corresponding panel and WinCC Runtime Advanced or WinCC Runtime Professional.

Furthermore, in the Engineering system you have a simulation which you can use to test the functions used in the project.

The exceptions to this are functions which access the file system of an HMI Panel "

WinCC Runtime Advanced and WinCC Runtime Professional are different.
