Is there anything in the xml file that reflect if its  a valid license or in the system registry that would tell if the license is valid---reason  I ams asking is there are others who I have corresponded with that have the same problem with the reverse axis during cutting process and it has alway been with the X axis, and some have purchased the license directly from Mach 3

checked my installaton of Mach3 on opening screen under Help/About  my full name is reflected as it is suppose to be---whou at else can I check---seems to me that there is not a problem with the license.  My shop computer is void of junk and in order to get you a copy of the xml file I would have to get a burner program and burn the file to a CD and then send it to you.  In the mean time, is there anything specific in the XML file that I can look at or look for?

He's asking if the tool path in Mach 3 and the DRO's are showing the expected cutting position or if they to are reversed.
The DRO's/Simulation are not connected to the hardware they reflect the instructions MACH 3 is sending to the machine if they are wrong it's likely a problem with the GCode, setup or less likely a bug in Mach.
If they look right and the machine is doing something different then you look at the machine or a bug.
It's less likely to be a common bug because if it were these forums would be on fire with people complaining.
I think the whole pirated thing is a red herring FWIW.

We ask to post an xml file because it quickly provides a way  for someone to see how you configured the machine and in general your settings
without asking a lot of questions. That minimizes the time we have to spend in addressing someones problem by eliminating some possibilies  along with asking more direct
questions tailored to the problem. So if a user can make our job easier in helping the user it would be appreciated.

Think as you wish but the pirated thing is real, can create problems, and can be a royal PITA. Personaly,nothing worse then spending  a lot of time trying to help someone with a problem, a problem that shouldn't exist in the first place, and is due to some horses ask who has no respect for anothers time, effort, and consideration.

Hood,
It sounds as if you are convinced I do not have a legit copy of the license or application-please tell me as a user and customer how I can determine that I do not have a legit license or application after spending hours upon hours on this software---you know I purchased it and who I purchased the software from base on the info that I have sent.

I am not convinced at all, in fact nothing is further from the truth, I was simply replying to ERP's  Red Herring comment.

If you can say whether the toolpath shows the errant moves or not that will help narrow down the cause of your problem.
Also as Rich said providing your xml would help as it allows us to look at your settings and see if there are any that could cause problems, much easier than asking thousands of questions and possibly taking pages of back and forth messages to get there.

Edit, just to clarify what I am meaning by the above

is I believe that you do indeed have a genuine licence.
