    SimTools has been reported as working with Win 11.

    SimTools v2 can be affected by things such as computer language setting: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/simtools-language-setting-bug-change-to-english-local.233/

    Great to know!

    SimTools v3, which is currently in open Beta testing, is believed to resolve this particular Windows related bug.

    That can be a combination of hardware issues and SimTools settings.

    I suspect it is triggered by a USB disconnect: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/simtools-usb-issues-can-cause-crashes.313/

    You can try lowering the profile to around 96%, and see if that lessons the disconnects.

    I also forgot to say, this motor has a heated driver.The settings on all motors are the same.Maybe the problem is in the driver?

    If there is just one heated driver that may be an issue, is that the case?

    Yes, only one driver heats up, and the motor stops working

    That would suggest investigation is required, to determine a cause. Do the drivers have heatsinks/fans to assist with cooling?

    IBT-2 drivers, with radiators. It is heated only by motor No. 2, motor No. 1 and No. 3 have cold radiators.
