Hello, I have recently downloaded the InVEST Workbench with the purpose of running the urban flood risk mitigation and urban stormwater retention models. I followed the Windows download instructions and it did download but when I try to launch it it does not open and crashes. I’ve tried to redownload with no luck.  
Any help would be much appreciated.  
Cheers

Hi @ashlaff, I’m sorry InVEST isn’t working for you.

Could you please look for files in this folder: `C:\Users\<your username>\AppData\Roaming\invest-workbench\logs` and upload them here? Those logs should help us identify the source of the problem.

Thanks!
