Hi,

My company has upgraded to EViews 13 (Dec 28 2022 build). I'm getting an error with the WFSAVE command - not sure if this an EViews issue or something on IT's end?

"Unable to load OpenXLSX-shared.dll library in "WFSAVE(TYPE=EXCELXML, MODE=UPDATE)"

Any advice?

My guess is that something has removed your "OpenXLSX-shared.dll" file from your EViews program directory. Reinstalling EViews from our installer should fix that (though you'll have to first uninstall, then re-install). Check after reinstallation to make sure the file is there. It might be some anti-malware program/policy on your computer that is removing the file so if so, you'll have to talk to your IT dept (if you have one) -- or simply put your EViews program folder into the list of folders to NOT check.

Another option is to use the "legacy" option to not use the OpenXLSX library, but use the older built-in library instead as a workaround. This should work without that DLL.

Thanks Steve. This was indeed an IT issue on my end.
