    Errors installing Add-In

    I have reinstalled Windows and NT8, as part of my regular maintenance. I tried installing an add-on that I have used successfully previously, but I received the following messages when I tried adding or removing the script. What should I do now?

    Hello Al Recites,

    Please follow the instructions below to see where the errors are coming from after compiling your NinjaScript files. This will allow you to debug the indicator/strategy or remove it from your PC.
    • Open NinjaTrader
    • From the Control Center select the New menu--> select NinjaScript Editor
    • Right-click in the window and select Compile to compile all NinjaScript objects
    • At the bottom of the NinjaScript Editor window, a new section will appear where you can find the error locations
    • You can exclude the file referenced in the editor by double-clicking on the appropriate object type on the right of the NinjaScript Editor window. This will expand the object type folder. You can then select the file with a left-click--> right click on the object--> then select Open to begin debugging the file, Exclude From Compilation, or Remove to delete the file.

    If you are unsure as to what the error is indicating, please post a screenshot of the NinjaScript File column and Error column fully visible (not to be confused with the Code column)
    • To create a screenshot with Windows 7 or newer I would recommend using Window's, Snipping Tool.
    • Alternatively to send a screenshot press Alt + PRINT SCREEN to take a screenshot of the selected window. Then go to Start--> Accessories--> Paint, and press CTRL + V to paste the image. Lastly, save as a jpeg file and send the file as an attachment.

      Hello,

      I have attached the screenshot of the editor, but the claimed 'missing' file is actually in the said folder. I am unable to re-import the add-on, and this is from a fresh install of Windows 10 and NT8. Click image for larger version

          Hello Jason, I tried the steps but the problem was not resolved. I have since reinstalled NT8 and manually deleted all relevant files. The program and add-ons are working fine now.
