hello!
i recently designed a new experiment, but now i am not able to open the file anymore. the error message i get is "Error: Loading. Please ensure, the file exists, is not write protected or read only, and is a valid E-Studio experiment file."

I controlled for all of these issues yet couldn't find the reason for the problem! i saved it the same way i saved all the other files which i may open. it's not write protected, it is a normal es2 file and it very well exists!

can anyone help me?
thanks in advance!

aileen

Try copying the file to another location.  Your My Experiments folder should be read/write.  If not, then attach a copy of the es file here or web support for review.

Hi,
last time I escaped the problem by simply recreating the file - wasn't that much work in that case.
However, now, again I have the same problem - for only one of 4 different files that I did not treat differently in any way! I checked the readonly-attributes... but nothing helped.

unfortunately i wasn't able to upload the file - as recommended the last time, instead i received an error, which i uploaded - what does it mean??

best regards and thanks in advance!
aileen

p.s.: the ebs2 file works perfectly, however I need to change stuff...

p.s.:
copying to another folder, even another computer, or rebooting did not help...

I had the same error. Copied the es2 file within the same folder. (I also deleted the wndpos file, not sure if that matters). The copied file opened successfully. Deleted the original and renamed the copied file to the original file name. No problems again with opening.
