Hi All,

I just cleaned up a bunch of files (i.e. moved them from my crowded desktop to relevant folders) and now I get this error when I try to open almost ANY of my .PXP files.

*** Igor was unable to fully recreate the experiment. ***
This notebook contains diagnostics to help you understand the problem.
You can kill this notebook when you no longer need the diagnostics.

IMPORTANT:
Some waves, procedures or other data were not loaded into the current experiment.
Therefore, if you save the current experiment DO NOT OVERWRITE any existing files.
It is OK to save the experiment. Just use a new name for the file.


What did I break??

I'm guessing that I used a routine in KBColorizeTraces.ipf and now it can't find the reference.

Any thoughts on how to fix this??

Thanks!
Sean
There should be an error message telling you that a file is missing before you get the diagnostic notebook.

If you can't figure it out, send a copy of an experiment to support@wavemetrics.com and include your Igor version and OS.

This file is in the Igor Pro Folder and did not move so I doubt that it is the problem.

HI All,

I expect that it was a "Microsoft thing".

The files were able to be opened after doing the latest "install updates and shut down".

I restarted this morning and I can open the files that had errors yesterday.
