Dear all, is here anyone who using FreeFem++ . mpi in windows 10 or 11. I have couple of Questions.

1. FreeFem++.mpi is already showing when i installed freefem++ but it is not opening. I don’t know why. Here, you can see  

2. Usually, i use notepad++ to write FreeFem++ codes. But if i used FreeFem++.mpi for parrallel computation then where i can write and edit my codes.

Please help. I am very beginner to this. I am facing too much difficulties in installation and run the demo codes in windows11.

Thanks in adavance.

Dear Monirul,

You should consider watching the introduction to parallel FreeFEM by professor Pierre Jolivet on youtube in the following link:  
[FreeFemTutorial](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Aw2O46V2bo&t=6422s)

It’ll certainly answer your questions.

Best regards.

Yes, use the prompt command to run your codes as shown in the tutorial. I don’t know which text editor he uses in the video, it’s not really relevant. You may try vs code, it offers a freefem package.

Best regards
