For clients running DesignMerge and Enfocus Switch on Windows systems (Windows 10 or newer), the system may not generate the required registry entry for Adobe InDesign. If this is the case on your system, when you try to use a DesignMerge flow element in Enfocus Switch you may receive an error message similar to the message shown below:

MPS Error: Could not locate the application "InDesign.Application.2026" for execution.

On some older systems you might also receive the following error message:

Error executing script: code <0>, description <ActiveX component can't create
object: 'InDesign.Application.CC.2019'>, source position <331>, source text <>
