Windows cannot find the path to the file. You may not be allowed access.
It started during the night. Can not access excel or office files that I created. Can access the files created by scanning in.
Try a system restore to a Date before the problem began:
Restore point:

Do Safe Mode system restore, if it is impossible to do in Normal Mode.
Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.
Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...
Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

Hi Scottud,
· Where you saved the Excel files?
· You are unable to find only Excel files?
If you remember the name of the file or the folder that you saved the files, you can use the search start, and search the files. See the link below: find a file or folder: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Find-a-file-or-folder
You can even check recycle bin if you've accidentally deleted it and recover again.

Windows will not open photos says windows cannot find the file (photos have been saved he previously said)
Thank you
Hello
I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing and will certainly help you in the right direction to solve the problem. However, I would be grateful if you could answer a few questions to refine the question in order to provide you with better assistance.
- Form when you try to open pictures? Is it in Photo Viewer?
- What type of files you are trying to open?
- You are able to open the photos in the Photos App?
- What is the brand and model of the computer?
- You did changes to the computer before this problem?
I suggest you to try the steps below and see if it helps you to solve the problem.
Method 1: Run the utility to search and index and check.
a. press the Windows key + X and click on Control Panel.
b. click on Troubleshooting.
c. Select display all on the upper left corner.
d. perform research and solving problems of indexing.
Method 2: Restart the Windows Search service and check.
(a) press Windows + R key and type "services.msc" and press ENTER.
(b) locate the Windows Search service and right-click on it.
(c) click Properties and check that the start option has been activated.
Method 3: If the problem persists, I suggest you to run a full scan using the Microsoft Safety Scanner (MSS) to ensure that the computer is virus-free.
The Microsoft Safety Scanner free is a downloadable security tool that allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malicious software. It works with your current antivirus software.
http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx
Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.
Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

Hello
Difficulty of the access privileges on your USB. It is locked or you simply don't have the right to write about it. No application can write on it.
BTW: it is not a good idea to read or write from a USB key in Illustrator (or any software) directly. These sticks are just a nightmare in terms of data integrity and tend to become too often mistakes of R/W.
Save on your drive hard and then make a copy on the USB key.

Original title: can't end file message system 32 drivers prdmgr.exe.
Under windows XP when I boot, I get a message: windows cannot find the file: c:\windows\system32\drivers\prdmgr.exe and I already made a ststem restore and still get this message.
Turn off System Restore. Use ccleaner and then go to tools/startup. Select it and click on delete. Are you sure its not the windows folder drivers? If its in the windows folder, is a worm/trojan. Looks like it belongs to the trojan.agent so sound in the drivers folder
Use ccleaner, and then click run cleaner. First close the browsers

Hello
I recently haven't been able to burn a CD with Windows Media Player (he worked last week, but not now). I get an error message "Windows Media Player cannot find the file. The link between the library item and its digital media file associated with may be broken. "Try to fix the link or delete the item. There is a web help option which says that to fix a link, you click on the blue icon next to the item, then click "Browse this article. But the only icon I see is a little blue triangle next to individual songs in the library pane or list, there is no icon next to the name of the playlist. Although the click with the right button on the blue triangle gives me a few options, "Browse this point" is not one of them. Does anyone have any ideas what is wrong and how can I sort it please!

Original title: Windows Error Message. Cannot locate the file K:\$MFT
Periodically, I get an error message stating that Windows cannot locate the file K:\$MFT or K:\System Volume Information. In this case my computer loses contact with K (my backup drive). The only way I can get the command back up and running is to shut it down, restart windows and then reconnect the drive. I have absolutely no idea where, why, or what this message is not irritating and a nuisance. How can I stop this?
My problem is back and I guess that I does not after all. It was suggested that more info on my system could help find answers. I am running Windows XP. SP3. My HD is 500 GB. Intel Core 2 CPU. 6600 GHZ, 3 GB of Ram.
In addition the cannot locate the message file, it sometimes indicates that a "delayed write failed" and I should save the K:\$MFT file also.
As far as I can tell, I have solved my problem. Windows 'Restore' was trying to save my disk backup for future use, and I think it's whence came the message. I changed the settings to restore now ignores my backup disk and the problem has not happened since. I hope it's the end of it.
