Hi,

Upgraded to Win 10 recently, and just tried to run the BAT and Scripts to make a footprint.
Evidently, Win 10 will not allow running the BAT files.

Googled the solutions. All failed.
Can't run as admin.
Tried the desktop shortcut method.
Tried the registry updates.

Anybody run into this, and do you have a solution?

Running:
PCB Libraries Enterprise 2019.07
OrCAD PCB Editor 17.2 and 17.4

Thanks,

Alan

Thanks to Nick Ban, I have resolved this.

I forgot that Cadence no longer sets up the paths in the environment variables.
