I cannot even create a standard project, codesys hangs forever and I need to kill it. If I remove the device directory in C:\ProgramData\CODESYS\Devices, I can create a blank project, or at least it doesn't hang.</p> <p>I am trying to repair my codesys install. Is there a way I can fix the device library without having to reinstall all my devices by hand ?</p></div>
