Hi, Mark. What is the actual command you typed? And did Chimera not start, or start but not open the data file? I am able to launch Chimera with a PDB file on my machine using the following commands: cd d:\chimerax\src\core\atomic "c:\Program Files\Chimera 2016-09-23\bin\chimera.exe" ideal_helix.pdb The first command sets the "current folder" and the second launches Chimera with a file in that folder. The latter command used a full path for a daily build of Chimera. If you put the Chimera "bin" directory in your PATH environment variable, you should be able to just type "chimera" instead.

For Mac in Terminal I can type Chimera and the file name to open a volume etc which is very useful. In Windows 10 for Command Prompt Terminal I cannot seem to achieve this. I thought if I added "open" after the executable I could achieve this but it does not appear to work. Please can you advise? Many thanks. Mark
