[QE-users] Segmentation Fault when running pw.x

[Aziz Fall]

thanks for the kind reply, so I just recently downloaded quantum espresso,
and this problem persist when I just run pw.x without specifying any input
files, it also of course fails with the example files as well under the PW
directory. Do you think it has to do with the version of QE I am running
which is 6.3?

Sincerely Aziz Fall
