Igpet (Windows) Path Not Found 76 error

[Guest Molly]

Customers have recently reported errors after installing Igpet2020 for Windows.

 

On program launch:

Path Not Found 76

 

After clicking OK, they were then prompted to browse for various settings files.

 

Then:

Path/File access error 75

 

After clicking OK, this message:

Press the Preferences button (next window), find a valid path to your data files, then press Save Preferences.

 

On program close:

Run-time error '76': Path Not Found

 

The solution is quite simple.

1. Be sure you have unzipped the IgpetFiles folder to your Documents folder, as instructed by the installation PDF. It is this IgpetFiles folder that contains the files which are needed by the program. It should contain 6 sub-folders: CMAS, Controls, Data Files, Diagrams, MIN, and PC.
2. Be sure the IgpetFiles folder with said subfolders is not nested inside another folder. The hierarchy should be:
   • Documents
     • IgpetFiles
       • CMAS
       • Controls
       • Data Files
       • Diagrams
       • MIN
       • PC

   The hierarchy should NOT BE:

   • Documents
     • IgpetFiles
       • IgpetFiles
         • CMAS
         • Controls
         • Data Files
         • Diagrams
         • MIN
         • PC
