== Computer hangs while attempting to run other applications when running a file ==

{{Warning|comment=It can be dangerous to attempt to use other applications on the same PC when the Techno CNC Interface is running a file. You may lose the ability to stop the machine via the Interface.}}

=== Scenario ===

While an NC file is running, the computer freezes and appears to crash if the operator attempts to start another program such as Internet Explorer.

=== Problem ===

The Control Interface requires all other applications be shut down and remain off while running a file.
