Importing variables problem

Description

What steps will reproduce the problem?

No code used, just selecting ‘import data’ in the variables explorer, that I had previously saved as .spydata

Traceback

Ok, found a solution. It had to do with the active directory. It has to be swapped into the one my scripts are in 😃

Hi Carlos, (after a long time) I found out what the issue with importing variables is: packages have have to be imported first, else spyder crashes 😃

I have to add that sometimes I can load it and some I can’t

That makes things even harder to consider. Please let us know if you’re able to narrow down the issue in a simpler situation so we reproduce in our side.
