Hi, I’d say that your bundle is corrupted and wasn’t properly unzipped. Please try re-downloading it. If it still doesn’t work, please explain your environment in detail, because as is, we can’t reproduce on our side. ---

Hi! Can you open a console (``+`R` then `cmd` ) And paste here the response to: ```nohighlight > C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-11.0.12\bin\java.exe -version > java -version ``` (yep, both please) and then: ```nohighlight > dir “C:\gatling-charts-highcharts-bundle-3.7.6” ``` @slandelle I found strange the double double quote for JAVA variable. ---
