@Asisnath thanks for your help! The simulation is running and now I’m getting to grips with all the energy modelling. Looks like new versions are ok and running. The thing is to get up to date with new versions and in case clean the Windows registry, clean folders - if someone made an update.

Hi Mike,
I get the same warning message from the simulation:
Program Version, EnergyPlus, Version 9.2.0-921312fa1d, YMD = 2020.04.24 15:04,
** Warning ** Version: in IDF = “9.0.0” not the same as expected = “9.2”
** Warning ** Version: in IDF = “9.0.0” not the same as expected = “9.2”.
Open Studio 2.9.1 and Energy Plus V 9-2-0 are installed on my PC.
I tried to install Energy Plus V 9-0-1 (no Open Studio) to solve the problem but the simulation reports the same error.
How did you solve the problem?
Thanks for your help
Hi @Pol_IT,
first of all I have updated to Rhino 6. Try uninstalling EnergyPlus and OpenStudio. Then clean up you registry with some freeware software.
After I’ve installed just OpenStudio (no Energy Plus). And it should work.
Thanks @Mike_Rogozinski , I have followed your advice and now the warning no longer appears. Despite this, I still get several warnings.
Could they be due to the model or is it still a problem of incompatibility between software?
I attach the report
