Unrecognized Argument When Opening Stream in SPSS

Post by raeldor »

I just had to re-install SPSS and now when I try and open a stream my double-clicking (or from CNDS) it says 'unrecognized argument'. I follow the KB article and re-selected SPSS as the program associated with STR, but it's still not working. Is this a Windows 11 issue? Works fine when I open the stream manually.

Ok, so I had to modify the registry and change HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\modelerclient.exe\shell\open\command to...

c:\program files\ibm\spss\modeler\18.3\bin\modelerclient.exe -stream "%1"

Previously it did not have the -stream part. Yikes. Why isn't this part of the install?
