weird situation maybe a bug

Postby vogelh » Thu Feb 12, 2026 1:26 pm

I don't know if it's a bug but it's weird.

Running eviews 12 on two dell desktops. 64-bit on both. Both are up to date versions.

Older office desktop runs the top part of my program correctly. Original home desktop died and replaced by another Dell 64-bit. Downloaded licensed version of eviews 12 with no problems.

But same program run on new home machine gave error message of different type of format for two matrix types called up and down.
program failed to execute correctly saying up and down were of different types.
.

Is there an explanation and how can this issue be fixed?

I'm afraid that's no where near enough information to be able to diagnose.

The obvious first step (having confirmed both copies of EViews are the same build date, which you say you've done) is to ensure you're using the same settings on both machines. You can copy your EViews settings file by clicking on Options->General Options->File Locations, then opening the Ini File Path location and copying the files there from one machine to another.
