After launching RadiMation it showed the error message "Device Driver System is already used by another application". What should I do?

When this message is showed it appears that (as the message already suggested) another process is using the device driver system. It could be that you are running multiple version of RadiMation at the same time. Close all the RadiMation versions and open just one version. If this message is still shown even when only one RadiMation version is running, then this is probably caused by the fact that RadiMation is not correctly closed the last time it was used.

The following steps should prevent getting this message when starting RadiMation:

1. Open windows task manager and sort the processes alphabetically
2. Look for multiple RADIMAT.EXE or RADIMAT.EXE *32 processes
3. Kill all these processes
4. Close the task manager
5. Start RadiMation again

If that does not solve this message from being showed at start up, you have to to log off and log on to you windows account again or directly reboot your system.
After that it should work again.
