Thank you too!
BTW, the upcoming QuickOPC 2020.3 will have a newer BoxedApp SDK and won't require this config change. In fact, recent builds of QuickOPC 2020.2 have it too, but I do not recommend you to upgrade to 2020.2, for other reasons.
Best regards

No, it is not correct. I saw your later post, and so I hope you have it correct by now, but for record, below is the correct content, and I am also attaching the file with its correct name.

Hi.
No, this is not correct. This time, the file name is correct but the contents is just "our" snippet; on itself, it does not conform to .config file schema for .NET apps.
The App.config file you attached earlier (and is is still available further below in this thread) had correct content. You just need to rename it properly.
Best regards

Hello, here is what I have found:
In the end, I have determined that the issue is not related to the OPC Server software at all. It can be reproduced just with your software alone, and Windows 10 version 2004. I have it reproduced on 2 such computers, one with Wonderware Intouch and the other without it.
And, in my tests, I have determined that, in line what I have originally suspected, the issue appears to be in an incompatibility between the BoxedApp SDK version and the Windows 10 version. In both of my tests, I was able to rectify the issue by using the configuration file I suggested. I have also made tests with my own application, and with increasing version/build numbers, I have found that the problem no longer appears with QuickOPC 2020.2 Build 257.1, which is precisely when a newer BoxedApp SDK has been put into the product, as mentioned here: kb.opclabs.com/What%27s_new_in_QuickOPC_2020.2 .
I know that you claimed that using the configuration file to disable the prerequisites boxing did not help. But, I have doubts that you have done it right - sorry. On the deployed system, the file needs to be named UCMECFG.EXE.config (*not* App.config - that is just a name that Visual Studio uses), and placed alongside UCMECFG.EXE (on my test computer, that was in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Control-See\UCME-OPC\BIN"). So, in order to use your file (as posted on this forum earlier), I had to rename it. But, I kept its contents without change - and it worked. And of course, the file needs to be in place at the time the application starts - later changes may not be picked up.
I suggest that you verify once again carefully that the file is properly named and contains the right data.
And, a true fix (not just workaround) would be to update your app to QuickOPC 20202. Build 257.1 or later.
Best regards
