    HELP! Can't open a program!

    There is a program that I cannot open now, I don't know what happend but I used to use it a lot but just today when i try to click on it, a window error log appears saying:
    "Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropiate permissions to access the item."

    But thats not logical! becuz I only have 1 account in my computer and I can alwasy run the program. BTW, the program is a executable game. (*.exe file)

    Please help me to fix the problem! Thank you!

    are you trying to open it from a shortcut?

    have you installed any new hardware/software that may be conflicting with it?

    Hi, thanks for the quick reply

    I tried to open both from the desktop shorcut, and from the directory. Doesn't work either way

    No, not that I know of, I haven't install any new soft/hardware recently. WelL...i think I did installed a Audio Mixer program called:Acoustica MP3 Audio Mixer. But...I don't really think thats the case :/

    It looks like you deleted the registry keys by use of reg cleaning software so its not installed anymore.

    To check your harddrive sector its on is not corrupt, run a chkdsk /f /r in Start>Run (accept & reboot) and after that defrag your HDD. Reboot once again and try opening it. If it doesn't open this time too, move the EXE elsewhere and execute it.

    I think the program maybe uninstalled though.
