Hi, I have SC installed on my D drive.
The path of default editor is set to D drive as well under Globalsettings->general settings-> text editor path and filename AND under Advanced Custom Study Editor Path

When I try to create new study via Analysis->New/Open Study->enter filename and press open C++ is not opening.
I see file being saved though in the list of studies above.

Will you be able to assist please?
Thanks!

What editor are you setting up to use for this?

Sierra Chart no longer sends Notepad++ with our software, due to some issues with Notepad++ servers getting hacked about a month ago.

So you need to ensure that whatever editor you are setting up actually exists. If you want to use Notepad++ for your editor, then you should download and install it to your computer, and then set the editor path appropriately.
For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service:
