OpenMS nodes (5.2) failing

Hi, I recently installed OpenMS (3.2), updated to knime 5.2 and installed trusted community and third party (5.2) nodes for OpenMS. First I tried to use the FileConverter to convert .raw to mzML, but this failed with the error message:
ERROR FileConverter 3:1901 Failing process stdout: [RawFileReader reading tool. Copyright 2016 by Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc. All rights reserved, Input file ‘ThermoRawFileParser.exe’ could not be found (by searching on PATH). Either provide a full filepath or fix your PATH environment! Since this file is not strictly required, you might also pass the empty string “” as argument to prevent its usage (this might limit the usability of the tool).]
ERROR FileConverter 3:1901 Failing process stderr: [Error: File not found (the file ‘ThermoRawFileParser.exe’ could not be found)].

The ThermoRawFileParser.exe was installed and is present in:
C:\Users\PhilJ\AppData\Local\OpenMS-.2.0\share\OpenMS\THIRDPARTY\ThermoRawFileParser.

I had a look at a few things including the environment variables and a few binary.ini files, but to be honest, I know only enough to get into trouble should I start messing around with them.

Can you help?

Hi 0nly4phil,
Sorry to hear that you are having issues with the ThermoRawFileParser. I can confirm that I see similar issues on Linux. We are going to see what we can do to troubleshoot that.
