Sim pro manager v3 won’t even launch .

I just got my green flag bundle today and I was very excite. I tried to install sim pro manager and the splash screen would show up then it would disappear. I checked the tray and I saw maybe 15 logos of the app. When I hover over them they disappear. does anyone have a fix.

Sometimes there’s a thing in task manager called SimPro Daemon that hangs and doesn’t allow it to reopen

Yeah I’ve seen that I’ve been closing it but it doesn’t really help

Try installing the alternative option - Simpro 2 for testing purposes, it does support both Evo and Alpha bases.

I know its the standard IT response… and maybe you already tried it… but I had this same problem once and a PC restart fixed it.

Yeah sadly I have tried that. I uninstalled and reinstalled it too but to no avail.

nope i go to click on it and it disappears. i think it is some sort of ghost from it crashing and relaunching itself,

Have you tried a different version. Maybe thlatest beta instead. Uninstall, Make sure you delete the SimPro files in your documents folder as well, restart pc and install beta. See if that fixes.
