unable to start simulation !

Hello all,

I am unable to start a simulation on PRIMO v0.1 on my lab computer: i7 14700k,  32GB RAM and windows 11,

however it works perfectly on my Dell studio with a core2 duo E6500 and windows 10,

I do not want to use the Dell studio as it is a  bit slower than the i7, but the i7 PC simply does not work! ( I have all permissions enabled and running admin)

here is the log file : -------------------------------------------------------------

Hi!

Probably the problem is related to permissions. It is important that PRIMO is installed as administrator and that there are administrator rights allowing to write in the PRIMO directory and all subdirectories.

 

Best,
