Installation Notes
- Run the installer as administrator and keep the default path unless your company standard requires otherwise.
- Launch the application once with administrator rights so it can register its components before first normal use.
- After installation, re-enable antivirus protection and add the program folder to the allowed list if your policy requires it.
- If a controller or robot connection will be used, allow the software through the Windows firewall when prompted.
- Reboot the PC once after installation completes — this finalizes driver and service registration.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is a license dongle required?
Licensing is typically node-locked or dongle-based; a trial mode is usually available for evaluation.
Can older projects be opened?
Projects migrate forward release by release. Keep a backup copy of the original project before converting it to a newer version.
Does it run in a virtual machine?
Yes, VMware or VirtualBox work for programming and testing; enable nested acceleration if you use the built-in simulator.
Which controller series is supported?
Check the release notes for the exact firmware matrix; each major version supports a defined controller range, and newer firmware usually requires a newer engineering tool.

Tips from Real Projects
A forty-screen WinCC Runtime Professional V20 migration went live over one long weekend, and the operators noticed exactly zero regressions on Monday. What made it painless: a strict screen hierarchy agreed with operators first, template objects for every recurring asset, and alarm classes defined before the first faceplate. Keep one authoritative graphics template; two “temporary” styles become five, and every future change costs five times the effort.
