NAV 2016/2017 RDLC Report Preview Not Working After Windows 10 Upgrade

(0) ShareShare

NAV 2016 and 2017 Print Preview no longer works on my newly upgraded Windows 10 machine.

BACKGROUND:

My development machine was recently upgraded from Windows 7 Pro to Windows 10 Enterprise.  Before the upgrade, I had NAV 2009R2, NAV 2015, and NAV 2016 running on the same machine without problems.  After the upgrade, I installed NAV 2017 (CU5) and upgraded NAV 2016 to CU19.

At this point, I noticed that NAV report Print Preview does not work for NAV 2016 and 2017, while print to a printer, PDF, etc. continues to work for all the reports I tried.  The Print Preview window does not appear, but on the Windows Task Bar I can see that the NAV Print Preview window exists indefinitely with the Busy icon. No error message appears.  (Smells like a registry problem.)

So far, I've tried...

  • uninstalling and reinstalling Windows Report Viewer
  • upgrading my SQL Server 2016 Express install to a full development version

I saw a thread on a topic related to Report Viewer and Windows 10 upgrade elsewhere, but I can't locate it again.  I recall that the individual ended up rebuilding his system.  Surely there's a better solution.  Any suggestions?

    Hi,

    Did you ever solve this? One of our Customers is having the same issue.

    Thanks

    I know this is going to seem like an extremely simple answer but then you never know. Sometimes the simple things are easy to overlook - so just in case.

    I had the same problem and looked everywhere for an answer. Until I realized that the report was actually rendering - I just could not see the window because i had somehow minimized itself and was hidden behind my task bar.

    I ran CCleaner and reset all my window placements and "hoala" everything was fine.
