Couldn't able to open Simlab. Pop-up window shows 'The required environment variable HW_UNITY_ROOTDIR was not set.'

Tried with changing environmental variables, but same issue.

Any possible solutions are welcome

Hi,

It is better to uninstall and install it again.

TO narrow down the issue, please let us know the simlab version that you have installed and platform windows / Linux version

Thanks kamalraj

The issue is sorted. If we pin the simlab to taskbar, we are getting the above mentioned error message.

In all other ways of opening the tool, it is opening fine. No reinstall required.

I am working in SL 19.1 , windows platform.
