Dear team, 
I am getting this error while trying to run the QSWAT+ Model in SWAT+ tool box.

The error pop-ups up after finishing the two year warm-up period. 
Any help on this please?

Dear Kenedy,

Are all csv and txt files from the model closed?

This usually happens if there are open files. Most programs like notepad and excel will lock file so that other programs cannot change them externaly. When SWAT+ is trying to change them, it fails.
Let me know if this helps, if it doesn't we can try something else.

Also, did you try to use the executable directly in the TxtInOut?

Cheers,
Celray James CHAWANDA

Hi Celray, 
Thank you for the insights.
No file is open and I even tried to restart my PC and restarted again just to make sure only SWAT+ toolbox was open and go the same error,
All the txt and csv files are from the model closed (However, I have copied the model from my Laptop to my desktop without rerunning it on the desktop). Could this be the problem?.
Thanks

I can't also locate the executable file in the Txtinout folder (missing)

Did you re-create the SWAT+ Toolbox project after moving it?

You could try creating a new SWAT+ Toolbox project but this is pointless if the executable does not run in the TxtInOut. Please run the SWAT+ Executable directly in the TxtInOut. You can download the executable from the SWAT Website.

Cheers!
