reboot your computer and keep running ZModeler as Administrator. At some point OS Windows will determine that it's safe to allow ZModeler load all modules and will let it start properly.

Add ZModeler folder and/or ZModeler application itself into a trusted list on your windows defender or antivirus (if any).
It is strongly advised not to put ZModeler folder on a system drive C: or at least do not use any folder inside C:\users (e.g. "Desktop", "My documents" or "Downloads" are also located in C:\users).

Redownload ZModeler from the website and unpack it into a different folder, then give it a try too.

Add ZModeler [folder] into exclude list of your antivirus. ZModeler can not load some of its modules (most likely because something on your computer does not allow to do this). I think Norton Antivirus could be the cause. Also, once you downloaded ZModeler from the website, check the contents of .zip file to ensure nothing is instantly deleted/quarantined from the package. In particular, you should have three "zmStoneguard" files there (.dll, .exe and .inl). The same files set should be in your ZModeler folder.

i deleted norton. in windows defender i added zmodeler 3 to the exclusion list and it still wont import or export. i had microsoft support read you instructions and they couldnt help me either. i cant understand what i have done wrong. it was working fine one night. The next morning it wont import. is there an antivirus that is zmod friendly. Or could it be a licencing issue ?

First of all, make sure license key is installed.

Reinstall ZModeler again into a different folder. Start it several times as Administrator without license installation, just start and close after 5-10 seconds. At some point OS Windows will consider application to be OK to run fine. Then proceed with installing license key.

I advise to put ZModeler into a folder like D:\Modding\ZModeler or something like that. Prefer a folder not on a system drive. Avoid cloud and USB drives too.

if you have specified your e-mail on settings page, then specify your account name and e-mail on "lost password" page. If you have not assigned any e-mail, you can't recover password. It's preferable to let browser save the password.
if you have ever made a purchase, you can specify me your e-mail on purchase (send a message via e-mail), so I can set this e-mail as your account e-mail too to recover password.

Install license key and restart ZModeler. You will have Import/Export service available then.

Most likely the file you are trying to import is locked. Try to export an .obj file and import it back to ensure the import/export is working.
