Renaming the AOC File

  1. Close the users's Axapta session if it's running. This is important because Axapta writes to the file as it closes.
  2. Right clicking the Start button and choose Explore.
  3. Click Tools.Options in the menu bar.
  4. Click on the View tab and make sure "Show hidden files and folders" is checked.
  5. Click Apply and OK.
  6. Right click the C: drive and choose Search...
  7. Use *.aoc to search for files ending in aoc. You might have to widen the Name column to see the entire name.
  8. Rename the ax_[configuration name]@[server name]_[username].aoc file by right clicking it, choosing rename, and put bak after .aoc. The name will now be ax_[configuration name]@[server name]_[username].aocbak
  9. Close the search window.
  10. Start Axapta.

    If the problem continues exit Axapta and search on *.aoc again and delete the file. Then rename the .aocbak file to .aoc.
