Generic Protocol

Postby bill516 » Thu Apr 02, 2020 1:28 pm

This is really getting me down.

I have tried two protocol files, one works the other doesnt. Just to make it more confusing one is a copy and paste of the other with just a name change and saved as *.xml.

copy file named arg.xml . I called it arg because thats what I said when it didnt work
Code: Select all
<?xml version="1.0"?>

SOLVED

I managed to get a renamed file to read by copying it to the desktop, renaming it then moving into the protocol folder.

Happy chappie
