Then for the frame screen (also how to get rid of required file name)

Hello @Mack_W

It looks like you’ve set PsychoPy to use the latest version. Is there a reason why you did that? This parameter is usually used to set your experiment to an older version of PsychoPy than the one you currently have. There is no need to set the version to latest. Leave this parameter empty.

Furthermore, PsychoPy cannot find the condition file stimuli.csv. The condition file is usually in the same folder as the experiment file. In all other cases, you must specify the relative path to your condition file.

Best wishes Jens

Thank you, I’ve done this and it is still not letting me run the experiment. Instead it’s giving me these errors, it also still won’t let me save the file so, some of these might be due to that.

I’ve fixed it, I think. Thank you!
