Hello

Windows has user-specific environmental variables and universal environmental variables that affect all users. If install us applications, variables can be changed. If you have installed a software, I suggest you do to Start-> component control-> system-> Advanced-> Environmental Variablesand then check the system and user variable. If the variables have been changed, you should try to make changes to get the same as before.

When you try to run a file or move to a directory whose name contains any of these characters: & () ^; |, or space >, then you receive following error message: the specified name is not recognized as internal or external command an executable program or batch file.

    Mr President.

    The parameter is incorrect. Let me know the solution to my problem explained above in the subject of this message. »

    Please delete my problem as indicated below:

    "Experaince Index Windows for my sytem could not be calculated. Could not measure the performance of storage. Error: unable to evaluate the drive.

    The parameter is incorrect. Let me know the solution to my problem explained above in the subject of this message. »

    Given the message is something in this sense:

    Index of Windows performance for your system cannot be calculated.
    Could not measure the performance of storage.
    Error: Cannot properly assess the disc.
    The parameter is incorrect.

    Do you use ReadyBoost (a USB drive connected to 'boost' performance)?  If so, unplug it.

    You have symbolic links to other locations on the system?  Check your TMP and TEMP environment variables to point to the REAL locations - not through any symbolic link.

    Make sure that the space is sufficient on the drive in question, as well.

    At the end of the day - I suggest you skip this "assessment" of your system and not run again.  ;-)
