Unable to open esim after installation

eSim does not open up after selecting the workspace.

Dear @KAVYAAP ,

Please search for the “.esim” and the “.nghdl” folder. They will possibly be residing in the SPB_Data folder. And then paste them in the C:\Users<Username> directory.

The above error occurs due to the installation of some other third-party software which alters the HOME path environment variable.

Still getting the same error sir… .esim and .nghdl are in User directory itself. I have uninstalled OrCAD PSPICE as well.

Dear @KAVYAAP ,

Thanks for your reply. Please copy .esim and .nghdl folder to the “C:\Users\VVCE\AppData\Roaming\SPB_Data\” path. This should resolve the issue. Please let us know if this doesn’t work.

I installed and started with a project but not files are getting added even after generating netlist and simulating

Dear @KAVYAAP ,
You need to right click and click on the refresh button from the drop down panel. Then, the project files will be updated.

Also, to verify you may visit the eSim-Workspace location where your project is saved. Please use a Windows File Explorer to verify this. You should be able to see all the files.
