>> As always, IDL is backwards compatible. All of your existing IDL code should continue to work as it did before. SAVE files created in earlier versions of IDL will work fine. In addition, SAVE files created in IDL 8.4 should work fine in IDL 8.3. Finally, we preserved the binary compatibility of IDL 8.4 with 8.3 - so libraries (such as the Slither Python module) should continue to work in 8.4 without needing to be recompiled.

Hi Eman,
I would contact support<at>exelisinc.com and give them details about your machine, operating system, and a reproduce program.
Cheers,
Chris
