This error is quite familiar (even on Linux). You have a few possible courses of action: - use foamToEnsight* to convert to EnSight formats - use the library plugin supplied with OpenFOAM (loads files with ".OpenFOAM" extension) - use Takuya OSHIMA's updated version of the OpenFOAM reader. Actually, can someone explain why this isn't included in VTK by default? It seems to work fairly well and Takuya is quite diligent about providing fixes and improvements.
