Hello damo666,

Thanks for your reply.

Please follow the steps listed below to completely uninstall and reinstall NinjaTrader:

Close all running applications.

Then from the Start menu select --> Control Panel --> Add and Remove Programs.

From Add and Remove Programs select NinjaTrader 7 and click Remove.

Then manually delete the folder "NinjaTrader 7" located under Start --> My Documents.

Delete any NinjaTrader installation files. This can be done by going to Start --> My Computer --> Search button --> search for (NinjaTrader*) --> select Local C Disk and then press search.

Then you will need to clear your internet browser cache and history. You will clear this from within your internet browser (with IE, Tools-->Options, delete cookies and files, clear history).

Reboot your machine.

Once these steps are completed, download NT7 from the link below:

Please let us know if you are able to get up and running after the reinstall.

Re: Unable to open trace file

Hi,

I use windows 8.1. I tried to login to my laptop today and noticed that I was logged in using a temporary profile. I was finally able to resolve the problem but with attendant more problem.

When I tried to login to ninja, I got the error 'unable to open trace file. I use ninja 7.

Is there any known solution?

Many thanks.

Hello ibuks,
Thank you for your post.

A basic uninstall and reinstall should resolve:

• Close all running applications.
• Make sure NinjaTrader is closed from the Windows Task Manager:
  • Press CTRL + ALT + DEL on your keyboard > Start Task Manager...
  • Processes tab
  • Locate and highlight "NinjaTrader.exe" > Click "End Process"
  
  
• Then from the Start menu select --> Control Panel --> Add and Remove Programs or Programs and Features
• From Add and Remove Programs select NinjaTrader 7 and click Remove.
• Navigate to the following folders and delete any "NinjaTrader 7" folders located here:
  • C:\Program Files (x86)\
  
  or
  
  • C:\Program Files\
  
  

Once these steps are completed, download and install NinjaTrader from the link below:

Please let me know if you are unable to open NinjaTrader 7 after reinstalling.

Two days after updating to Windows 10, NT crashes and I can no longer open it due to a "Unable to open trace file" error. I have tried everything to uninstall and re-install. Can you help please. I'm losing opportunities to make money as long as I can't use NT.

I tried this as well, still not working. The error message "unable to open trace file E:\Libraries\My Documents\NinjaTrader 7\trace\trace.20150814.txt" When I go to the trace folder, there is no trace file in there.

Unable to open trace file issue....

Dear Sir or Madam,
Greetings,
I want to inform you that I tried to open my NT7 that was working just fine a month ago. However, I had this error message attached by this message that says
Unable to open trace file...... could not find the path.....
I went to trace file location where you can find a picture attached showing for real that such file does not exist.
Before writing you this message I tried to look into all the past posts related to this issue but no clear solution on how to overcome this problem was given yet.
Can you please guide me on how to solve this?
Please, I do not want to uninstall the platform from the scratch as some friends tried, due to the indicators I have and the history I downloaded. ....
I want to understand the logical cause of this issue and a simple solution please.
I can provide you with all the necessary datas if you wish.
Thank you so much.
Yassine
