Note
When you need to re-register the KISSsoftCOM<Version>.exe, you can use following command in CMD. Important thing to note is you need to run the CMD as administrator. You need to change the path in the first line with your RecurDyn install directory.
cd /d <Install Dir>\Bin\KISSsoft\bin32
KISSsoftCOM<Version>.exe /regserver
regsvr32 KISSsoftCOM<Version>PS.dll
