Hello @catem-code and @janebeta7,

Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention. To better understand and troubleshoot the error, could you please provide more context?

• What were you doing when the error occurred?
• Is this a recurring error or did it only happen once?
• Can you provide your environment details? (OS, Java version, Processing version)

These details would be really helpful for us to investigate further.

It looks like this happened when opening a sketch, so a couple more questions:

• Was it actually a sketch folder? (This error could happen if the editor isn't able to find any source code in the folder.)
• Does it happen consistently with that folder? (If so, can you share it?)

I solved the problem. The sketch.properties file did not exist so I copied this file from another sketch and it worked.

Were you using p5.js Mode or something like that?

Yes, p5.js

Ok, opening a new issue over here: fathominfo/processing-p5js-mode#30

Is there anything you can tell me about how the sketch was made? Did you create it, close it, and then re-open it? Was it immediate or after several days? Has it been re-saved multiple times? I'm just trying to figure out how the sketch.properties file went missing so I can fix it.

I got the same thing when using the Python mode in Processing 4.3. I have just installed Processing so not much baggage is needed to reproduce it:

1. Download Processing
2. Install Python mode
3. Switch to python mode
4. Save your sketch (I saved mine to a non-default path)
5. Restart Processing
6. Try to open the saved sketch
7. Get NPE mentioned in this thread

Note: it does not happen if you save in the default location.

Hi Ben, unfortunately I can't give you much information, because I'm not aware of when the file disappeared, perhaps in a poorly executed folder copy.
