  • Winpoint failure

    From ALAN BECK@1:123/140 to ALL on Sunday, November 15, 2020 05:18:16
    Hi,

    I have a problem with WinPoint.

    On start up it crashes on startup with the following message.

    "Exception EOSError in module Wpointll.exe at 00011C71
    System Error Code: 1722.
    The RPC server is unavailable."

    Anyone have a solution?

    I tried to install winpoint over the current
    install and got nowhere.

    Do a Google search for "RPC server is unavailable" and you'll find an absolute mountain of information about the problem, along with possible solutions.
