Hi and welcome to the community!

Was it greyed out all the way, or it has happened just recently? I f the former then do you have the latest driver installed?

Thanks

Hi! Thank you! It was greyed out since the Installation. Yes I installed the labtest driver.
Is it Possible that this Is a Feature I have to licence?

Marvin,

Can confirm that this option does not rely on licensing, so this might be a driver issue. Please open support case and share the case ID in this thread. Thanks.

Resolved by self-help. There was disabled mail slot on the autoloader => after enabling mail slot, the export tape is possible again.

No, the mailslot was disabled on Autoloader.
I already checken the Settings on my Autoloader, the Mailslot Is already enabled there.
Have you had a chance to reach our support team already?

Thanks.
