As of three days ago, all (every script that I've tried) of my previously working SAS scripts keep failing, with Floating Point Zero Divide errors. I am using SAS 9.4 (TS1M3) for Windows 10 64 bit. One example of my code is below
/***************************************************************************
* SCAN THE EXISTING FLUX DATASET TO REDUCE THE FILES READ IN- i.e. DON'T *
* READ IN FILES THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN PROCESSED *
***************************************************************************/
PROC FREQ DATA= DATASET.LINEARFIT;
TABLES FILENAME / OUT= PROCESSED NOPERCENT NOCUM;
RUN;;
DATA PROCESSED;
SET PROCESSED;
DROP PERCENT;
PROCESSED= 'Y';
PROC SORT;
BY FILENAME;
RUN;
Which returns the following log:
/***************************************************************************
46 * SCAN THE EXISTING FLUX DATASET TO REDUCE THE FILES READ IN- i.e. DON'T *
47 * READ IN FILES THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN PROCESSED *
48 ***************************************************************************/

50 PROC FREQ DATA= DATASET.LINEARFIT;
51 TABLES FILENAME / OUT= PROCESSED NOPERCENT NOCUM;
52 RUN;
ERROR: Floating Point Zero Divide.

I have no idea how to approach fixing this error. The scripts were working absolutely fine prior to this. I've seen examples if this error on other PROCS online, but none of the literature seems relevant to my code.
