I think you will Need Simatic Net >= V8.0 with VMWARE >= V7.0.1 32Bit Do you know the Siemens compatibility tool? https://support.automation.siemens.com/kompatool/pages/main/index.jsf Towome

Make a new project and create the configuration once again. Do not include S7-300. Best regards, Hristo Mihalev
