I was editing some names in the xml of an action I created and when I convert the file to ATN I get two errors: "10264 not well formed (invalid token)" and "9600 return new XML (str)" on two different lines. I don't know much about the xml language but I'm sure it must be for something I misspelled. Can someone please tell me how to correct it?

Thank you, it's urgent!

I'm not familiar with XML and don't really want to understand its syntax.

But look at the picture

What was in the original code at this point?

Photos of the monitor are not great and I can't tell the before/after of what you have done.

Please take proper screenshots and clearly mark the before/after issue.

Also a cropped screenshot of the original action step with the panel wide enough to view all content and the step expanded/open so that all parameters are visible would help.

Here's a screenshot of the error Photoshop gives me when I try converting the xml to atn and another two screenshots of the xml with the two error lines highlighted (I zoomed out in the document hoping to show as many steps as possible).

Thank you

So what are you trying to do that can't be achieved by simply editing or recreating the action step in the native form?

The most common thing that people resort to doing is editing file open or save paths.
