STEP 7 5.3 SP1 Installation Issue - Repeated Restart Request

Hello tyrell444, welcome! It's common to encounter issues during STEP 7 5.3 SP1 installation. The repeated restart request despite already restarting Windows usually indicates a problem with existing Siemens installations or incomplete removal of previous versions.

Here's a troubleshooting approach:

  1. Check for Existing Installations: Use the Windows Control Panel to ensure no remnants of older STEP 7 versions, or related Siemens software (like Automation License Manager) are present.
  2. Siemens Uninstaller Tool: Download and run the Siemens PLM Software Uninstaller. This tool thoroughly removes Siemens software, which a standard uninstall might miss.
  3. Run as Administrator: Ensure you are running the STEP 7 installation setup file as an administrator. Right-click the setup file and select "Run as administrator".
  4. Compatibility Mode: Try running the installer in compatibility mode for Windows XP SP3 or Windows 7.
  5. Check Windows Updates: Ensure Windows is fully updated with the latest service packs and updates.

If these steps don't resolve the issue, please consult the STEP 7 5.3 SP1 documentation on SiePortal for detailed installation instructions and troubleshooting guides. You can also search for specific error codes on SiePortal.
