VC Pro v10 and an old Shopbot PRT

Post by Perry »

Hi folks, just installed the latest and greatest, created a file and went to save it, discovered that the Shopbot PRT post processor is not listed anymore. The only option was for Shopbot TC post (in mm and inch)
Saved my file and tried to cut, only to have software report issues and "dump" the file.
The current work around was to go in and edit my file, but I don't wish to do this to every file I go to cut.
Is there a fix I'm not aware of or can post processor from V8.5 be brought in??
Thanks to all, and be safe!!

Update:
After digging around in the PP demo, found a sub folder in the PostP folder labeled Shopbot.
Found my PP, copy and pasted into the Root PP and now all is good!!
Thanks and keep the machines moving!!
