Multisim invalid source file name

Save the copy in case you need to restore the registry. Using another computer In a second computer that is working fine open the Windows Registry Editor In Windows go to Start»Run Type regedit , press OK Navigate to the corresponding registry key as noted above depending on the Windows system that you have bit or bit Right-click the key directory and select Export Save to a.

Restart the computer and launch Multisim, it should now work Using the attached registry files - These files were created from a clean Windows 7 test machine.

They were found to be valid for XP and Vista also. Download the corresponding file from the Attachments section: For bit systems: Jet4Win7x Double-click the. Restart the computer and launch Multisim, it should now work Reset Windows 10 - If you are using Windows 10, the attached registry files may not fix the issue.

A reset of Windows 10 is a potential solution. In the related links there is an explanation from Microsoft Support on how to do it.

You can either select the correct valued capacitor from the list or place one and double-click it and modify the value. Metric prefixes or their one-letter abbreviations can be typed in the box along with the number. Place the resistor and make sure it is the right value if it is not, double click it and change the value.

Up to now you must have something like this:. You might be afraid that the connection has not been made since MultiSim does not really show a connection but as long as you click on the red dot that appears near the terminals the connection will be made.

To connect a wire to a component you only need to click once near the red dot however to leave it loose you need to double click the red dot is visible in the picture above. A quick way to make sure a connection exist is by dragging the component and seeing whether the wire comes along.

Now choose an oscilloscope from the right hand toolbar the Instruments toolbar. You have four choices; for most circuits the generic 2-channel oscilloscope does the job. Channel 1 is normally used to look at the input of the circuit, and channel 2 is used for the output. After placing the oscilloscope and wiring it to the input and output terminals it should look like without the yellow circle :. Notice that when two wires simply pass over each other there is no connection inside the yellow circle but where the wires are actually connected the connection is represented by a dot.

In the box that appears name the connector something useful e. Vin and place it somewhere so you can connect it to the positive side of the channel A of the oscilloscope. An On Page Connector behaves like a wire those with the same name are electrically connected so get another connector and in the window that appears double-click on the name that you chose earlier and put the connector near the positive side of the AC source as shown below.

We can make the circuit yet a bit more organized. Double-click the oscilloscope and set the horizontal and vertical scales appropriately. The trace should look like this:. It is hard to see which graph corresponds to which input, to solve this problem, we will change the color of the wires that go into the oscilloscope and that would change the color of he graphs. The new wiring might look like:. I have pulled the oscilloscope a little to the right to make room for our next task.

Run the simulation and double click on the oscilloscope again change the divisions to the one shown below to get a similar graph. Would you like to run the Convergence Assistant to attempt to resolve this problem automatically? Solution Simulation errors can arise for different reasons. To resolve these issues, first let the Convergence Assistant attempt to solve the problem.

If it is not able to fix it, look for the following causes: Floating components i. Some native components, like the SPST switch, have low resistance values. Increase the minimum resistance of the component. Use a different component that provides the same functionality. Parallel voltage sources and inductors.
