Solutions When Windows Security Blocks Mech-Mind Software from Opening

Symptoms

  • Double-clicking the icons for Mech-Eye Viewer, Mech-Vision, Mech-Viz, Mech-MSR, or Mech-Metrics does not open the application. Windows Security displays the message: This app has been partially blocked.
  • Mech-Eye Viewer, Mech-Vision, Mech-Viz, Mech-MSR, and Mech-Metrics cannot be installed using the installer.
  • When training a model in Mech-DLK, the training fails with an unknown error.

Possible Causes

After a Windows Defender security intelligence update in Windows 11, Windows may mistakenly identify Mech-Mind software as unsafe and prevent its normal use.

Notes

This issue is unrelated to the software version.

Solutions

Temporarily disable the Smart App Control feature as follows:

  1. Open Windows Security and select App & browser control.
  2. Under Smart App Control, select Off.
