How to enable EGS_Windows_4.0.exe

EGS_Windows_4.0.exe does not run

I downloaded EGS_Windows_4.0.exe from #783, but after double-clicking it prompted me with “An error occurred while loading the archive”. I need to set the option of IWATCH to “EGS_Windows” to visualize the output file as input, so I changed the option from “none” to “EGS_Windows” in the input file which I had run before, but I can't submit the task.

I'd like to ask two questions, firstly, how to install EGS_Windows_4.0. exe, and why I can't do the calculation after changing the setting.
Thank you very much.

What OS are you on? Note that it only runs on linux, and you'll need to follow the instructions to get the dependencies from the post that you linked.

When you change the IWATCH option, what output do you get from the simulation?

I‘m installing EGSnrc under linux and I want to visualize it by outputting particle track files for EGS_Windows with the IWATCH option.

Can you post the output you get from BEAMnrc when you run it on the command line?

I have an input file that previously ran successfully, and then I only changed the IWATCH option from "none" to "for EGS_Windows," but it can no longer compute. Additionally, I set "Score Last Z" to "no" because I noticed in the manual that if set to "x,y,z of last interaction," it would conflict with the IWATCH output.
