Cannot Import PLC tags from Allen-Bradley PLC to C-More v9.00 software due to GUI-185 error

Hello, I am unable to import tags from my PLC project which is using Studio 5000 v36 saved as an L5K or an L5X file. The error I get is:

 

Error GUI-185 : Import File is already opened, corrupted or invalid data. Please check the file and import again.

 

When a coworker imports the same file, he does not receive this error and he is able to import successfully. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program, as well as tried all file type imports.

    Is the tag database file open in Excel when you attempt to import the database?

    • Josh Bazely (Customer)

      No, the file is closed. I've tried with only C-more software open on the computer after a fresh restart as well to eliminate any background processes.
