This may be a antivirus issue.  Antivirus often updated 
without being noticed so that end users often complain.

Try disable antivirus or white-list j.dll.

It's this issue: https://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/System/Installation#AVX

When you choose what it is you are downloading to install, you choose
whether to download an AVX instance or a non-AVX instance of the J
engine.

If the AVX instance doesn't work, and the non-AVX instance does work,
then AVX is probably the issue for you.

If neither version works it's probably a permissions issue or some
other machine configuration problem.

Or... that's my understanding...

Thanks,

I'm not sure what that distinction is or how I check it but I have done
this for similar machines in the past.

Are you installing avx on a non-avx machine?

[Jgeneral] Problem copying latest release

2019-01-18 Thread Devon McCormick
I tried to install the latest version of J by copying my working version to
a machine behind a firewall that I cannot update normally.  This has worked
in the past but now fails with an error saying it cannot run "j.dll".

Is this a known issue?

Thanks,

Devon
