Door & Window "Error - cannot be ignored"

[MichaelSmith8547]

Hi, I have had a problem with several of my Revit Project Files.  When I go to change a window or door (creating a new type) I get an error box "Error - cannot be ignored" with the explanation of "Can't make type "Window - slider: 5040". I am not able to import new windows into the files, see attached pdf.

I have audited the file and uninstalled and reinstalled the program, but this has not fixed the problem.

Any idea what the problem is?  And how I fix it?

Thanks

So, my guess is that you're picking a Window Type that is hosted differently than the other windows the Family Types Parameter was using.   

Post the file and I'll explain with pictures.

Thanks for the response. @barthbradley 

Here is the file.

Can you give me some driving directions here as well?  What do I check?  

There is no 5040 Slider.  

...but I can create a 5040 Type without issue.

Oops sorry.  I was duplicating a window to create a larger window - see PDFs. @barthbradley

Seems to work flawlessly on my end.

No issue here.  The family is nicely built by the way.

Any idea why I would get an error message, and you don't?  I have reinstalled Revit once already.
