Could you provide more information, such as the version of EViews you're using, the operating system you're using, how you're opening the file, etc..?

Hi,

I am using eviews 7 on windows 7. I am just clicking on a specific wf1 file and then I get the message that this file is not existing. How is this possible?

Thank you for your help.

Kind regards

Please post a screenshot of the error or send a screenshot to support@eviews.com.

Do you have any non-English characters in the path or filename?

What happens when you select file->open->workfile? Does this work?

I would also select help->EViews update and verify you have the latest version installed.
