1. Inserting a hydraulic reference point doesn't erase an existing ref point at the same location

2. New ref points in HydraCALC are not using the values of the HYD ref points.

When I use Pretty Sprinklers, all the nodes that were attached to my sprinklers when using All Ref Points disappeared. 
When trying to get them back by re-running All Ref Points, they don't reappear.

AutoCALC is creating extra node points where there shouldn't be.  In the image below, node 45 shouldn't be created as there's neither a flowing head nor a change in diameter at that point.

'extra node'

'extra ref point'

'extra reference point'

One or more toolbars cannot be found after selecting a menu or command.

This happens because the toolbar is being opened 'off screen'. This usually happens when the computer has a dual monitor but the 2nd monitor isn't currently connected. 

After raising to 3D, you see green lines extending from (0,0,0) to points on the drawing

You can erase the green lines and continue on, this is an annoyance and inconvenience but not really a problem.

When you insert your vertical pipe/riser nipple, you see the text "HCAD/D_UNITS" as the diameter's suffix

Missing install path in the registry runtime error 48 48

Double-clicking your HydraCALC icon makes nothing happen.  You do not see HydraCALC open onscreen nor on your taskbar.  HydraCALC does not open other than in the task manager.

If you open your task manager and see the app "Hyd_prog.exe" open but not on your taskbar, then the application is stuck in purgatory.

Another possibility may be that it's on the taskbar but not on your screen.  That means it's open but offscreen. 

See this HydraCARD to fix that issue;  HydraCARD 565 only AFTER you've checked on the solution below.

When trying to open a drawing file, you get this error;
