| Windows cannot access the specified device,path or file..... I can't open any files on my computer. I get the following message "Windows cannot access the specified device,path or file. You may not have appropriate permissions to access the item." Of course MSN Messenger works, which allows me to get to IE to add this thread. Clicking on the IE Icon or navigating to a file via windows explorer and clicking on a file always comes up with this same error message. Suggestions on how to solve this problem? |

| RE: Windows cannot access the specified device,path or file..... A Hacker with a bizzare sense of humor probably slipped something Hardware or Software related onto your computer because it knows youre a programmer and programmers have to run stuff by WHDC + MSDN , its probably hoping that you wont notice that when you click on something on your computer you just sent a copy of what youre doing to the above 2 Microsoft companys , their safety inspectors. Anyone could use a CD etc. , when you would walk out the room -even your own family for example - bizzare sense of humor etc. , try contacting microsoft.com with Messenger , that's probably why thats the only thing thats running , theyre trying to get you to notice to contact them , you Can use Libraries or anyone you know who has the Internet , or call Microsoft on the phone , call any number , tell them you'll pay money if you have to to get them to look into it , they'll probably find it -- Amateur Answer "gdubu" wrote:

| RE: Windows cannot access the specified device,path or file..... I understand your problem you dont want to pay $60 for a Phone/E-Mail/Chat and the idiot hangs up the phone on you or the Hacker plays that joke on you again you dont have that kind of money . What you can do is buy a PERQ 3/QC card , it comes in 2 types RAID + Internet {Ethernet , Wireless - PCI type cards} , QC = Quality Control , it uses SSL 4 technology = TLS 1.0 = Total Lockdown Security , if your PC has been tampered with theyll contact You and ask you if they can look at your the Files on you PC and then fix it for free, because you pay a yearly Service Fee . -- Amateur Answer "gdubu" wrote:

| RE: Windows cannot access the specified device,path or file..... as a temporary fix: Right Click on the file, go to properties, general tab. It will probably say "file has come from another computer and is being blocked". Click the unblock button and you should be ok. I am also looking for a more permanent solution. One blog indicates a register hack but the key "ExecuteFromMappedDrive" does not exist for x64 bit machines (running Windows 2003 R2) "Amateur Answer" wrote:
