Opening multiple Vensim models at the same time (Wondows 8)

Post by Junaid »

Hi,

I could open two or more Vensim models in Windows 7, but cannot do that in Windows 8. Any suggestion!?

Thanks,

Click Tools->Options->Settings, the untick "Close active model on Open/New".

That should fix it.

Tony.

That's useful, Thanks Tony. Is it also possible to open two or more models at the same time so that I can run them simultaneously?

No, Vensim will not let you run them at the same time.

What are you trying to do?

You can open two instances of the application and run independently in those, but they won't have any connection.

Just click the Vensim icon twice.
