KNIME Crashing on File & CSV Reader Browse For File

KNIME Analytics Platform
1

I am brand new to KNIME after receiving a how-to manual for machine learning using the platform. That said, it is entirely possible, and even probable, that I'm doing something wrong here but the application crashes every single time I try to browse for a file when double clicking either the File Reader or CSV reader. I'm not sure if I'm doing that incorrectly, although I don't believe I am doing anything wrong. For some extra reference, here are the last few lines of the log file before the crash:

Hi rberger909,

It sounds like you are using KNIME 3.4, can you confirm that?

Is this happening for a specific file or for a text file in general? Do you encounter this problem with other nodes?

Cheers,

Vincenzo

Hello Vincenzo, thank you for responding! I am using version 3.4. This occurs before I can even open a file, it happens when I hit the button to browse in either the CSV or File loader. KNIME crashes when I hit the browse button in either case.

Hi rberger909,

Which OS are you using?

Thank you,

Best,

Vincenzo

Hi,

any progress here?

I have the same issue on my machine. I am running Windows 10 Enterprise - the problem persists now even after the Fall creator´s update. I have tried to install 64 and 32-bit versions of Knime 3.3.3 and 3.3.4 - no difference, opening csv or File load leads to an instant crash. 

Regards,

Jakub.

Hi jakub,

Would it be possible for you to share the log file? <knime.workspace>\.metadata\knime\knime.log

Best,

Vincenzo

Hi Vicenzo,

I attach the log from newly created worksflow with only one node created - CSV Reader. In the Input location, when Browse button is clicked, Knime instatly crashes.

I'd like to see the solution to this too. I am having the same problem. As soon as I click on Browse, it crashes.
