[SOLVED] Could not open file JflashSettings.ini or JFlashSPI.ini while working with multiple JLinks

  • Hello,

    I am using J-Flash V6.88 and J-Flash SPI V6.88 with 4 JLink Pluses to program multiple targets simultaneously. From time to time I get a pop-up message with error: Could not open file [C:\Users\...\Appdata\Roaming\SEGGER\JFlashSettings.ini]! or Could not open file [C:\Users\...\Appdata\Roaming\SEGGER\JFlashSPI.ini]!
    After closing this error message, the programming continues normally.
    The J-Flash is being called from NI Teststand using "Call executable" test step.
    Argument looks like this (for J-Flash):

    Code
    "-usb ProgrammerSN -openprj JFlashProject -open FW -jflashlog LogFile.log -hide -auto -securechip -exit"

    For J-Flash SPI:


    Code
    "-usb ProgrammerSN -openprj JFlashProject -open FW,0x200000 -jflashlog LogFile.log -min -auto -exit"

    What could cause this issue?

    Thanks
