I'm trying to simulate a very simple model using ESP-r on windows. I've used different computers but it keeps crashing. When I try to open the saved file, an error pops up saying "Problems with configuration line". When I try to add materials in the database, it freezes and doesn't respond. So I have to close it. How can I fix these issues? image description

@Elin can you add screenshots or other types of images to your post so that others can provide better help?

@aaron I added the image of the error. Whenever I save the file and I want to open again, this error appears and I can't load the model.

What Windows version of ESP-r? Basically, the Windows version has been dormant for quite some time and only recently re-initiated by Jon Hand, afaik. I don't know if Jon is active in unmet hours, you may have more success via the ESP-r mailing list ("old school, I know :) esp-r@lists.strath.ac.uk).

How did you create your .cfg file? Did you at any point edit it "away from" ESP-r? If yes, then possibly attach it here, the issue may be simple.
