I have a problem dealing with opening a simulink model.

Hello,

I'm trying on opening a simulink model. (*.slx file) However, when I double click on the file, it keeps saying "File '.....' does not contain a valid Simulink model in SLX format : Could not open source package". I tried excecuting exactly the same file on other PC, it worked.

I think there's something wrong with MATLAB settings on one of my PCs, Is there anyone who can help me out?

Thank you!

What releases are you using on the two machines?

The issue looks like system specific. Antivirus, security software or virtualization can corrupt the files. This can also lead to this kind of error. Save the model file after disabling the antivirus in your system. Check file size after saving the model, if the file size is less, that is the size in few KBs then the file might be corrupted. Try saving the model in a different folder, if you see any permission issues. Also, create a simple model and save the model in the same folder and check whether you are able to open the model or not.

Thanks a lot! I think the security issue on my computer was the problem. The file size was very less.

Hi, did you solve this problem yet? I just come up with this problem too. my slx file couldn't be open on other computers either. File size didn't change, I'm wondering if the slx file was corrupt because of hard disk's problem.

yes the antivirus software us "Bitdefender" in my case is causing the issue, just disable or unistalling it worked for me!!
