1.
Cause:

Application is unable to reach important files or files are wrong version.

Solution:
Three steps will fix this:
1.) Make sure the HCadMainBase-r.arx is the proper version for this version of CAD-R. 
                 Open windows explorer and browse to "C:\H40\PROG\CAD-R\ACAD2018-64" or "C:\H40\PROG\CAD-R\ACAD2019-64" or whatever version of autocad you are trying to open.  
Find the file "HCadMainBase-R.arx".   Right Click on it and go to Properties.
Go to the "Details" tab.  It will tell you the version.  The versions should be as follows:
ACAD 2017-64                                ---->               54.1.64.1
ACAD 2017-64                                ---->               55.1.64.1
ACAD 2019-64 or ACAD2020-64       ---->               56.1.64.1
For Example:
To get the proper version,  re-run the Hydracad-R Install.
 
2.)  Make sure that HydexVB64.dll is in the windows/system32 folder.
Obtain the Lock Fix file from HydraCad, inc. and run it on your machine.
 
3.) Make sure your support file seach path is correct.
      Open up HCAD-R.  
      Right click on the command line. 
      Select "Options". 
      Select the far left tab: "Files". 
      Click the plus sign beside "Support File Search Path"
      There are 3 things to look for in this list:
          a.) Make sure the ACADxxxx-64 in there is for the version of Autocad you are currently on.
          b.) Make sure there are NO other ACADxxxx-64 for different versions in there.
          c.) Make sure that all entries which start with "C:\H40"  appear BEFORE entries beginning with "C:\HES" in this list.
For Example:
