Saving flows on Knime "Executing nodes are not saved"

Hey team, when i try to save my flow i get the following message “Executing nodes are not saved”.

I dont have any nodes executing and I also tried to click " Cancel all " and " Reset all " and when i try to save I get the same message.

Do you know how to solve this?

Hello @Leonor_Cardoso,

and welcome to KNIME Community!

Maybe something is running/stuck in a Metanode or a Component? Whenever I got this message I always had nodes running.

What version are you using? Can you do print screen with error message together with whole workflow where it can be seen that neither node is running?

Hello Ivan, thank you for your quick answer.

I saved the workflow on a different name using save as and the issue stoped.

However yesterday afternoon it started again and now i see i have some nodes working (but taking really long). Similar nodes execute in less than a second and others are loading for hours. I cannot cancel the nodes in order to save them.

What should I do ?

Hello @Leonor_Cardoso,

some nodes take less and some node take more time to execute. Depending on data and action you are doing. I assume from the screenshot k-Means node are taking longer due to large number of cluster configured. Think about decreasing it or simply wait until they are finished in order to save your workflow. Anyways you have to wait until they are finished in order for succeeding nodes to finish as well so you can have your results.
