FlexSim 2017 Won't launch

FlexSim 2017 seems to start to run, It opens up a loading screen and then immediately closes it and then the program does not open. There were no errors in the installation process. What could the problem be?

FlexSim 17.0.0

Does it give any system error message or anything?

I'm not sure what the problem could be. I would try uninstalling, re-downloading the installation file, and re-installing. When re-installing, try right-clicking on the exe file and select "Run as Administrator." See if that changes/fixes anything.

This post gives 9 different suggestions of different things to try in getting FlexSim to install or start up.

The final suggestion, to use Windows Event Viewer, may yield additional information which you could post here to help us troubleshoot further.

From your description, I have seen the same symptom when an anti-virus software was automatically shutting FlexSim down.
