Picoscope 6 crashes by clicking on "Math Channels"
Hi Pico Team,
Hi Forum Users,
for a project I am using math channels to calculate timing differences between different channels.
Out of a sudden, PicoScope6 crashes when I a open a previously working PSDATA file and try to open the Math Channels by clicking in the menu.
I have read in the forum that Math Channels might crash the app if calculations run into a division by zero, for example. And I am not sure now, what was the last thing I did editing.
Nonetheless I would expect that I can open and modify any calculation or whatever might has been corrupted to fix the issue.
If I am not totally wrong, there is a central library where (previous) math calculations are stored. If that's correct: maybe there is something corrupt? Where can I find and remove this lib to restart calculations building from scratch?
Even after 2x de- and re-installion of PicoScope (latest available 6.14.44.5870 on Win10) and resetting start-up settings to factury level, I am still ending in a crash when I try to use Math Channels.
Any ideas what to do?
Many Thanks
Gotthard

You will find one or more long alphanumeric named folders for different versions of PicoScope software in
C:\Users\{YourLoginName}\AppData\Local\Pico Technology\
for the PicoScope 6 ones you will find a file mathsformulae.psmaths which you can edit with a text editor.

Hi Martyn,
after deleting this mathsformulae.psmaths you mentioned, math operations can be accessed again without crash.
Thanks
