It did not open and threw a message. I am not able to open the waveform even after closing the existing instance of modelsim and opening in a new one. This is the error message: Quote: # WLF Error: File is open by another application or was not closed properly. # Cannot open file: C:/projects/project1/code/tb/sim/vsim.wlf Back to top dave_59 Senior Joined: Jun 22, 2004 Posts: 974 Location: Fremont, CA Posted: Fri Jun 08, 2012 5:08 pm    Post subject: I hope you realize that you are using an extremely old version of Modelsim and your work is not critical. You should look for a command called "wlfrecover" to repair your WLF file.

In that case, try logging out and logging back in to release the lock.
