What do you mean by "stopped working".  It goes from RUN to STOP after a couple hours, by design.  Is this what you mean?

So are you running it on a PC that you did NOT install Designer on?  That can definitely cause it to fail.  The Simulator utilizes folders that get created by the installation program.

Rel 2.2 now installs to Program Files.  Hence, the Simulator data files are now located in the "public documents"\Do-more\Designer2_2\bin folder.  You need to create that folder on whatever PC you are running the Simulator on.


There may be other features that act strangely (Live Update, Help, et.al.).  The software was not developed to run on multiple PCs off a central server.  It may have "worked", but your installation is a little different than typical installations.  Caveat Emptor.
