    When SimTools starts there is a splash screen then SimTools minimizes to the system tray. Is that what it is doing or something else.

    The other possibility is antivirus messing with the installed.

    Try turning off your firewall while installing SimTools. Worked for me! Don't forget to turn them on as well!
