lost my vcp

Post by cody.farr »

so I just put on a new touch screen monotor 17"
and I lost my Vcp

I had a 22in monitor and it had the VCP on the right hand side
with the new 17" touch screen and it is gone
went to windows 10 setting and it will not let me into display settings and it will not let me in to change it .
this is what i get
this file does not have an app associared with it for preforming this action
do we have to have a minium screen size for this to show both cnc 12 and vcp?

No minimum size, but Acorn requires a 16:9 monitor at 1920x1080 (hd) resolution.
Cheers,

Tom
Confidence is the feeling you have before you fully understand the situation.
I have CDO. It's like OCD, but the letters are where they should be.

As Tom said, you NEED a high resolution WIDE screen monitor.
I bet if you look in the task bar, VCP is there.
If its an old square monitor, won't work....
