Can not open sample models after upgrading

Hi, I have just upgraded my Vensim Pro 6.4 to Vensim Pro 7.1. However, when clicking sample models provided in Vensim Help, nothing happens. Previously when using Vensim Pro 6.4, clicking a sample model (usually in the form of a hyperlink given at the bottom of the explanation of a function) will immediately open that sample model. How to solve this problem?

Thank you so much.

Did you install using admin permissions?

It sounds like the file associations have been messed up.

Yes, I did. I can open those sample functions by finding them here C:\Users\Public\Vensim\Models\FunctionExamples. However this is troublesome. Is there any solution? Thanks.

I'm not sure if it's an OS permissions change or what, but I think this is becoming widespread. We'll look into it.
