FAQ: Why is STEP 5 closed under Windows 10 immediately after starting? Unfortunately, this article is currently only available in German, the language change in the menu bar leads to an error message. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here is the text translated by "Google Translate": Immediately after the start, STEP 5 is closed again with the error message "Invalid path name". description The behavior described above occurs in Window 10 (versions 1903 and 1909). The DOS box appears briefly during the start-up process of STEP 5, but it is immediately ended and the start-up process is aborted. In some cases the following error messages appear: German: The application has encountered an error: Der angegebene Pfadname ist ungültig (0x800700A1) English: The application has encountered an error: The specified pathname is invalid (0x800700A1) French: The application has encountered an error: Le spécifié nom de chemin n'est pas valide (0x800700A1) We recommend that you install the exchange file included in the download so that you can also work with STEP 5 under Window 10 (versions 1903 and 1909). The suitable exchange file for STEP 5 depends on the language of your keyboard layout. Download the download to a separate directory on your hard drive and unzip the zip file. Then copy the extracted file "SIMATIC STEP 5.exe" into the directory "C: \ STEP5 \" and replace the file with the same name. The compatibility of STEP 5 with Windows 10 (version 1903; 1909) is thus fulfilled. Creation environment: The picture in the FAQ was created with STEP 5 V7.23.5.
