FreeCommander Forum

I have been using Freecommander for years without any problem, and suddenly I found that I could not use it to open any file. Every other file manager that I have tried works just fine.

This is the error message that I get: Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.

I am certainly logged in as an administrator.

I tried reinstalling. Same problem. I tried uninstalling rebooting and reinstalling. Same problem.

I don't believe that I was doing anything that should have caused the problem when the problem appeared.

Thank you for your help.

Perhaps it's a broken path, please check all opened tabs and fix the broken path.

I am afraid I do not know what you mean or how I would fix a broken path.

Uninstalling and reinstalling did not fix the problem.

Strange, try to close all tabs, set path for left and right panel to C:\ and restart FC.

The last tab on each panel will not close. Set to C: and restart. Same problem.

Strange, perhaps you're using some program, like TrueCrypt, Daemon which is creating new drives and it's unavailable?

No. I have not added anything like that. I first noticed it after downloading TeX. It was then installed on an external hard drive that is only turned on when I need it. The download was deleted.

And run XE as admin (right click... etc.).

I am. I checked that. I am the only person who uses the computer.

I know that it does not make any sense.
