• Get the Error Message When you try to reinstall Vista: Windows cannot open the required file: E:\Sources\install.wim

  I'm trying to reinstall windows vista for the following reasons:

  1. I have SQL Server 2008 installed on my computer.  I deleted some files a long time ago and it screwed something and I couldn't reinstall.
  2. I had partitioned my hard drive for vista half and half SuSE and I deleted who and when I did, I think I deleted another partition - my recovery partition (E:\?).
  3. I need to clean my laptop.

  When I try to start the installation of a disk and I put in my product key, I get the following error:

  Windows cannot open the required file E:\Sources\install.wim.  The file does not exist.  Make suure all files required for installation are available, and restart the installation.  Error code: 0 x 80070002.

  Let me know if you have any ideas how I can fix it.  My next step was to recreate this E directory and download the install.wim file and re start the installation.  I could not find the file install.wim well.

  Hi Rob,

  I checked the link you provided.  What you downloaded was just the Vista recovery environment.  You cannot actually re - install Vista with that and if you blew your recovery partition unfortunately you may be out of luck.  You blew your partition containing Vista runs so the SFC will be of no help either.  I wish I had better news for you, but I don't see any way o get on without a Vista DVD.  I have good news for you if.  When you get your HP drive if you have problems with the installation, we will be able to help you with that.

  Take care and let us know if you need assistance when the disc arrives. Locutys of Borg

  You did mention what email client you use. If Outlook Express, turn off e-mail scanning in your antivirus software. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the CPUs, slows down sending and receiving and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs, account setting changes and has even been responsible for the loss of messages. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:
  http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

  Why you don't need your anti-virus to scan your email
  http://thundercloud.NET/infoave/tutorials/email-scanning/index.htm

  Note that for many AV programs, it may be necessary to uninstall the program and reinstall in custom Mode and uncheck e-mail scanning when the option is available.

  In addition, reset the modem and router if you have one. Unplug for about 15 seconds & reconnect.

  If this does not work, contact Global technical support and ask them to check your connection.

  Hi pro, blackstone

  ·         You have security software installed on the computer?

  Usually, this would happen if the computer is infected with a malware or virus infection.

  I suggest that you scan and remove any malware or computer virus infections and check if it helps.

  You can also use Microsoft Security databases to scan your computer

  If you are unable to launch the scan mode normal and then start in safe mode with network mode and later perform analysis.

• help Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You can not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.

  I downloaded a game and I'm going to open and it says Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You can not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.

  The thing is I had this game on this laptop before and worked fine.

  But every time that there is a update for the game, you have to uninstall it and then reinstall it.

  When I reinstalled it.

  I now get Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You can not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.

  It's windows 8, I am using.

  What is the problem?

  Hello

  Thanks for the reply.

  You can try to temporarily disable the antivirus program and check the results. It can also occur if you have not enough permission to run the file.

  Caution:
  

  Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.
