SUMMARY

The discussion addresses a problem with running Moritz, a proprietary 3D viewer for MCNPX, on specific PCs while it functions correctly on others. Users observe that the executable (exe) runs in the task manager without displaying the GUI. The issue appears to be related to PC settings rather than user permissions, as Moritz works on Windows 10 Enterprise but fails on other systems. A simple solution involves resizing the application via the task manager to make the GUI visible.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Windows operating systems, particularly Windows 10 Enterprise.
  • Familiarity with task manager functionalities.
  • Basic knowledge of running executable files and application compatibility.
  • Experience with troubleshooting software issues on PCs.
NEXT STEPS
  • Research Windows compatibility settings for older applications.
  • Learn about task manager features and how to manipulate application windows.
  • Investigate potential issues with running applications over VPN connections.
  • Explore alternative 3D viewers for MCNPX in case of persistent issues with Moritz.
USEFUL FOR

This discussion is beneficial for software developers, IT support professionals, and users of MCNPX who encounter issues with legacy applications like Moritz on modern systems.

in addition, note that, with the click on the same exe on another PC, Moritz opens and works
And that moritz did work on the same PC until it was launched from a VPN session

Moritz is/was a two thousand dollar proprietary program, and it looks like the company website vanished 4 years ago. I've never used it, so I'm going to be of extremely limited help. You used the term 'exe' so I'm assuming you are in windows. Are you in too new a version of windows? X last had a version in 2011, so I'm guessing you are using a program that is at least 10 years old. Are you running under compatibility mode? Does the program need a dongle of any kind?
 
This program is working on my PC whose OS is Windows 10 Enterprise but not the PC of my colleagues facing the Pb
in addition if the same exe is launched by my collegue on my PC with his account , it is also running
Its seems then PC related and not a question of rights
 
The solution is in fact very simple:
launch moritz then ask for task manager /select Moritz and choose ( Agrandir ( Resize?) in the contextual menu
