Open Window -> Preferences.
Click on Parallel Tools on the left side of the Preference dialog.  "Invalid directory" error message was displayed on the right side of the dialog.
And I cannot click on any sub items under Parallel Tools on the tree view of left side of the Preference dialog until I modify the Output directory to a local folder.

Driver used: 20100607 nightly build.

Sorry, picked the wrong product.  It is for PTP instead of PDT.  Thanks.

I don't see this problem. The output directory field contains "output", but I don't get an error. What platform are you using?

I used Windows XP.

The driver I used is 20100607 nightly build. Is it possible that it is fixed in latest driver?

I don't think it could have been fixed as I'm not aware of anyone working on the problem. It looks to me like it's Windows specific which may be why no one has noticed it.

I've moved this to 4.0.1 so we can look at it after helios.

Closing because unable to reproduce. If the problem recurs in 5.0, please reopen.
