I am an aerospace student using SU2 for wing simulations. I accidentally checked the “Set reader as default” box for .vtu files, selecting the OpenFOAM reader. Now, ParaView skips the “Open Data With” selection dialog and attempts to force-load my binary SU2 files as OpenFOAM cases, causing a vtkXMLUnstructuredGridReader error (Line 26: invalid token).
Environment:
-
OS: Kubuntu 24.04 (KDE Plasma)
-
ParaView Version: 5.11.2
-
Installation Method:
sudo apt install
Steps Taken (that did not work):
-
Deleted
~/.config/ParaView/ParaView-UserSettings.json. -
Uninstalled and reinstalled via
apt purge.
