The proposed solution is a temporary one. It is very annoying to create manually an empty file each time we want to save it. I hope for an update to come soon 🙂 ---

There is no empty file to create, the message says **To work around this, manually select the “.zcos” file format in the list of supported file formats** ---

Yes, you are right. I had just read the last message. My mistake… I’d like to take this opportunity to point out the following problem, which is not solved by simply installing vcredist\_x86.exe: “c\_pass1: build the modelica meta-block failed” “xcos\_simulate: Error updating block parameters”. when runnig this xcos diagram: ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/utc/original/1X/1b370b55642ff826280036cb094541271a42c62f.png) ---

The versions installed are the following ones : CPGE : 1.7.2 COSELICA : 2024.0.0-1 SIMM : 0.6.2.3 I think they are the latest ones. I will try under MacOs 🙂 Thank you and have a nice weekend ---

Hello, it’s working fine under MacOs. So the problem is due to Windows. After viewing on this site, I took a look on internet, other people have met the same pb, without finding a solution. Wait & see… [Previous page](https://scilab.discourse.group/t/xcos-coselica-support/418.md?page=1)
