Binary code error and won't open MassHunter Quant Analysis

Question

For some reason a group of us can not open the Mass Hunter Quantitative analysis software. We keep an error code that says "Failed to open batch file. Failed to read binary batch file. We can't analyze any of our bin files.

Hi kharrison77 , Another thing you can do is to check with your IT department and see if they have enabled the Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) enforcement policy in Windows. This is commonly done on US government computer systems. Currently no versions of quant are compatible with this policy. The error you are receiving is what you will see if FIPS is enabled and you try to open or save a batch. Compatibility is being investigated for future releases but there is currently no ETA on when this will be available. Currently the only solution is to request exemption for your PC from the policy.
