Problem:

I got a error when installing KOMPAS-3D ("Data1.cab file not found").
I got a error while unpacking installer archive ("not supported archive" or "archive corrupted").

Solution:

ASCON software installers are packed with 7-zip file archiver. This is open source software, most of its source code is under the GNU LGPL license.

IMPORTANT: always use the latest version of this archiver to unpack ASCON software installer! You can download it at official web-site https://www.7-zip.org

To install ASCON Software, please, do the following:
  1. unpack downloaded ASCON Software installer with the latest version of 7-zip archiver into some directory
  2. go to this directory
  3. run installation process from this very directory (not from unpacked *.zip file!)
