I am getting an error "Failed to load control 'lnet' from MSINET.OCX" I just installed EnergyPlus and can not start it because of this error. Suggestions?

Thanks,

It sounds like you are trying to use EP-Launch which comes with EnergyPlus. Sometimes the library files like MSINET.OCX do not get installed properly. One strategy that I know others have used is to install a much older version of EnergyPlus that used a different installer. Look at the page:

https://energyplus.net/downloads

and try installing an old version and see if that fixes the problem.

You might also want to review the discussion on:

which is a similar issue.
