Windows cannot find

Windows 7 64 bit. Adobe reader was working OK until problems with AVG uninstall. We have uninstalled/reinstalled reader several times including using special programmes to make sure of successful uninstall. Reader seems to be installed OK but we get an error message that says windows cannot find c:\programme files(86)\Adobe\Reader11.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe We have tried to install different versions resulting in the same message and on the last install, we were only given the option of 11.0. Installation of the main Adobe programme as a free trial works OK.

You can try using this tool to first remove all traces of Reader from your computer:
http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
Then, you can download the full offline Reader installer from
http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

I keep getting the message, "Windows cannot find 'c:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again." I get it when I either try to open it from the Start menu or from the desktop icon.

I've just installed Firefox on my laptop and keep getting the message, "Windows cannot find 'c:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again." I get this message whenever I either try to open it from the Start menu or from the desktop icon. I've never gotten it to work and even uninstalled it and then redownloaded it and still cannot get it to open. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!

Are you installing from the official site? http://www.mozilla.com/firefox
If you use Windows Explorer (My Computer) to check that path, is the Mozilla Firefox folder there? That is the normal installation location, but I think it's worth checking.
If the folder isn't there or firefox.exe is not in it, I wonder whether some other software might be interfering. You might want to run some supplemental security scans. These two tools are highly regarded:

Receiving an error message when connecting to internet saying: windows cannot find "address" but it connects anyway???

The error message that appears when trying to access internet says that windows cannot find "address" and asks to make sure it was typed in correctly. It continues to connect but is a hassle to deal with the error message each time. Any suggestions?

What is the ip address you are getting on the Vista Computer..?
Click Start >> All Programs >> Accessories >> Command Prompt...A black box will appear(Command Prompt)...In the Command Prompt window type ipconfig and press 'Enter'...Look for Wireless Network Connection IP Address , Subnet Mask and Default Gateway...
IP Address should be 192.168.1.x, Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.0, Default Gateway : 192.168.1.1 (assuming your router is 192.168.1.1)...
If you get the above mentioned IP Address, Subnet and Gateway Address then you should ping the Gateway, type ping 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...If it gives you request timed out then disable any firewalls, security softwares on the computer...
If you get 4 replies then type ping 4.2.2.2 and press Enter, if you get request timed out, then you need to upgrade your router's firmware...If you get 4 replies then type ping yahoo.com and press Enter...If you get replies for Yahoo then you should get the Internet after adjusting the browser settings...
Adjusting Browser Settings : Open an IE, click Tools >> Internet Options, then delete all files, cookies, history, forms...Goto "Connections", make sure Never Dial a Connection is checked, click on LAN Settings and make sure all the options are unchecked...Once you are done click on O.k...Close the IE and re-open it...
If yahoo times out then provide static DNS on your LAN Connection...
Click on the Start button >>> Settings >>> Control Panel >>>Network Connections- Right click on the icon for Wireless Network Connection and go to properties- On the 'General' tab select 'Internet Protocol TCP/IP' and click on the Properties button- Select 'Use the Following DNS Settings' Preferred DNS 4.2.2.2 Alternate DNS - 192.168.1.1>>Click on Ok button to Save and Click on "Close" on main Properties window...You should be able to go online...

"Windows cannot find the microsoft software license terms" Windows 8.1 Installation Error - Parallels

I'm trying to install Windows 8.1 via Parallels on my Macbook Pro.
I create a new VM and use the .ISO file and get the error: "Windows cannot find the microsoft software license terms. Make sure the installation sources are valid and restart the installation."
I found this question was answered here: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/b1021d66-9774-4b5b-b50b-ad860c5ecc89/windows-8-enterprise-rtm-installation-error?forum=w8itproinstall
However, following the steps of the solution did not work for me. I created a blank VM and chose Windows 8.1. After this, it asks me to insert the installation disc. I cannot figure out how to use the .ISO as the source at this point. I tried copying and
pasting the path to the file and dragging the file to the VM, but no luck.
If there is a way I can install this without this error message or by somehow getting the path to the .ISO that'd be perfect.

Hi,
According to your description, I would like to confirm if you have unchecked the Express installation box.
Be sure to uncheck 'Express Installation' when installing, otherwise Windows setup will fail with an error "cannot find license terms" and get stuck in a reboot cycle.
I suggest you refer to the following link to use Parallels Desktop to install Windows 8.1.

Windows cannot find 'C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4(64bit)...'

I've just installed the CS6 upgrade on my WIndows VIsta x64 bit machine.
Just now, I opened a folder of files in Bridge CS6.
I highlighted one of the files and selected Ctrl/o to host Camera Raw in Photoshop, which is what I always do.
But, I got an error message saying that Windows cannot find Photoshop CS4.
I did uninstall CS5 after installing the upgrade, if that makes any difference.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
D.

For some users an uninstall of previous version wrecks havoc with file associations.
First try edit/preferences/file type associations. Click on reset "reset to default associations". If that does not work click on individual file and set default to CS6.
If the above does not work you either have to unistall CS6, run the Adobe Script Cleaner or read registry solution in this link. http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1005273?tstart=0

Hi
While previewing the template from MS Word, it pops up with the following error --
Windows cannot find

When i try to preview it as a PDF, the pdf is located in the temp folder by the name 271234562718103out.pdf but somehow windows is trying to find out 271234562718103out.pdf718103out.pdf and pops up with the error.
How is this file name getting generated? Everytime it appends some of the last characters to the file name.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance

Open the following registry and set the work directory which does not include any spaces:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Oracle\XML Publisher\Template Builder for Word\TB_WORK_DIR
In my case the above Registry Key has the value:
C:\Documents and Settings\p.jain\Local Settings\Application Data\Oracle\BIPublisher\TemplateBuilderforWord
and I changed it to:
C:\DOCUME~1\PAAAB~1.JAI\LOCALS~1\APPLIC~1\ORACLE\BIPUBL~1\TEMPLA~1
and it worked.
I suggest you copy the path from the error which you receive.

Windows cannot find AcroTray.exe

Hi,
I'm using adobe acrobat pro 9 and started getting an error message everytime I attempt to create a pdf file using ms office whether it be in word, excel, or even in ms project
The error message is:
Windows cannot find 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat10.0\Acrobat\AcroTray.exe'
Make sure you typed the name correctly, and try again.
This just started to happen last week after using acrobat pro for the last two years with no problems.
I am using windows 7 home edition.
Any suggestions on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated as I've had no success
Garry

I would run Help>Repair. Then do the updates to AA9 also. That may repair the problem. As suggested, it looks like the AA X trial was installed and then removed. One of the problems of removing a version of Acrobat is that it often breaks the remaining versions. Hopefully, a repair will do the job.
However, you should be able to find AcroTray in the AA 9 folder also. Check the startup folder to be sure that is the version that is being called. AcroTray should be running in the background to enable PDF creation.

Windows cannot find (null) problem - firefox wont start? help!

ive just got a 'windows cannot find (null)' problem when staritng Firefox; being using it for years no problem but cannot open it now. tried removing and reinstalling, still get the message.
any ideas what I can do??
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== 20 June 2010 ==
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 5.1; Trident/4.0; GTB0.0; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.0.4506.2152; .NET CLR 3.5.30729)

Yesterday after posting my problem I consulted a computer programmer. He advised me to follow the pathway C:\\users|richard\....... from Explorer to the extension and delete it. Worst case scenario would be to uninstall and reinstall Firefox. I deleted it and the unresponsive script and warning disappeared without any other complications.

X200: Windows cannot find file error (& cygwin problem)

Often (about half the time) when I double click an icon (.docx files typically) to open I get a error reading"Windows cannot find ‘C\Users\username\Desktop\filename.docx’. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again." I can *always* resolve this by simply double clicking again. I ran a complete disk check (the thing that runs on reboot) and it passed with no errors. OS: Vista with all updates, Apps: Office 2007 with all updates. Disk: Solid state (128GB) SAMSUNG MMCQE28G8MUP-0VA
Any suggestions for troubleshooting tips?
I also wonder if this might be related to the following problem. I have CYGWIN installed, and once I have changed a file in emacs and saved it, emacs can no longer find it (no matter what I do). These days I get the message within emacs "file is not readable", although in the past the error has said something about a fork.

There is a primitive called 'Request Deallocation' that is suppose to free up resources in a VI after it is called. You could try using this.

Getting the error "Windows cannot find '-Xmx128m' "

Hi all,
When I try to I execute workbench.cmd, downloaded with OracleR TopLink 10g Release 3 (10.1.3), I am getting the error "Windows cannot find '-Xmx128m' .Make sure that you typed the name correctly...." .Further, my application is based on Java Swing and not a web application.
I made the following changes in the <TOPLINK_HOME>/bin/workbench.cmd file :
a) Set the 'JAVA_HOME' to the JDK path, same as that given in the
Environment Variables setting.
b) Set 'DRIVER_CLASSPATH' to point to
<TOPLINK_HOME>/jlib/classes12.jar.
My System configuration is as follows :-
Operating System : WindowsXP
JDK Version : JDK1.4.1
Data Base Client : Oracle9i
Data Base Server: Oracle8i
Can anyone please suggest any solution for this problem.I 'll be very thankful.
Regards,
Manju

Have you run across this thread while trying to resolve this problem - How to start Workbench (Toplink 10g) Not sure if it applies to your situation, but thought it might be helpful.
If this doesn't help, perhaps you can paste the contents of your workbench.cmd file into this thread and we can try to debug the issue further.

Windows cannot find file

Hi! I'm new to LabVIEW (been using it for 2 months). For some reason, as time goes by (after I install it), LabVIEW crashes more and more often. At the beginning, it crashes (just quit itself and ask if I want to send an error report) once in a while, but would be fine again when I restart LabVIEW or the computer. Today, I edited a sub VI and included in my main VI, then when I ran it, LabVIEW crashes again (and gave me the option to send or not send the error report). I restarted the computer and tried it again, and the same thing happened (NOTE: LabVIEW crashed at a different sub VI that was working properly before, so I don't think it was because I edited a sub VI earllier). I tried it a several time and still the same thing happened. Then I turned off my computer (thinking I might have had it one for too long), and waited about half an hour until I tried it again. This time, when I double click on a VI to open, it took a long time to open LabVIEW and then an error popped up saying "Windows cannot find so-and-so.vi. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, click the Start button, and then click Search". The worst thing is, after the error popped up, LabVIEW opened the file that was not found.
I'm thinking it might be related to project problems. I had my main VI in a project before, then I deleted the project and the alias file. Could that be it?
Thank you.
