Hello,

I am having problems calculating a product system or project.  An error message appears asking me to go to settings > configuration > increase "Maximum memory usage in MB".

Currently it is blocked at 3584 MB and I can not increase or decrease it, the memory is frozen at 3584MB. I bought a new computer thinking that mine was not powerful but the problem still persists.

Could you suggest a solution so that the software works properly and I can carry out LCAs in my company?

Sincerely,

ok maybe you agree that the software works properly already now - you can extend the allocated memory in file/settings/configuration, and need to have write access to the folder where openLCA.exe is. This is modified via the settings. Thank you!

Hi,

Thanks for your feedback.
 
The software displays an error when I want to modify the memory in the /setting/configuration file. Doesn't the software have a programming problem? The IT department of my company has not been able to solve the problem. Is there anything else
I can do to make the software work on my computer?

Regard,

As said, you need write access in order to change and save the preferences, which are in the openLCA.ini file. If you do not have admin rights on your computer and cannot get an admin to change the preferences you can simply use the zip archive version for windows, extract in your user directory and use from there. Good luck.
