Hello Everyone! I just got a role in IT as Desktop Support so I am a newbie.

Just got a user on the network that received this error upon logging onto her machine. I read through the posts and it seems as though Desktop was able to solve the issue by locating the file- Program and removing it. Was it really that simple or...?

Why are you hijacking this thread... create a new one yourself!
How did you locate the file if only "C:\program" is listed in error message?

I just found this topic and thought I'd add: I got this problem and it was seemingly due to the open-source software PDFCreator, which had installed itself to a subdirectory of C:\Program. I wonder if this is a bug with the installer system, because I certainly didn't specify that directory during the installation. This is pure speculation, but maybe the installer has a problem parsing spaces in directory names, and "Program Files" became "Program." Just a thought.

Do you know what this command does?
Code:
copy this is the question to you
Does it copy file "this is the question" to "to you". Or does it copy file "this is the" to "question to you".

Indeed a space problem.
