This is the message: "See the logfile 'C:/Prtogram Files (x86)/OpenSesame/opensesame.exe.log' for details".

Hi Roni,

Could you please post the contents of opensesame.exe.log? That file will contain the actual error message.

Cheers,
Sebastiaan

Thanks!

Hi Roni,

This seems to be an error that results from non-Latin characters in your filename. However, this problem should be resolved (at least) as of version 0.27.4. Are you using an older version of OpenSesame? If yes, then updating should resolve the issue. If no, could you try if the latest pre-release of 2.8.0 resolves the issue?

Hi Roni,

I had the same problem.
I'm french. So, sometime I use accents for my fils (bad idea I know).

I saw that I had accents in the link where is my experiment. After deleting it, my problem is resolved.

I hope that it will help you.
