Windows cannot reach the requested location or file.
Hi, initially this might seem like a crypto update but I'm sure it's just a Windows problem since I've encountered these issues while running my mining software. I've been using T-rex for about 2-3 months, but it stopped functioning last month. The setup involves a t-rex.exe program and several batch files that guide the application. Whenever I tried to open any of those files, I received an access denied message, and when I attempted to run it as administrator, Windows reported the file wasn't found. I've been trying to figure out what's wrong. After launching t-rex.exe directly, the error changed to a permissions issue with the device path or file. So far, I've adjusted folder and file permissions, granted myself access, re-downloaded the software, tried running it as admin normally, disabled Windows Defender without any antivirus installed, moved the files to another location (though OneDrive still blocked it), and even used a new user account with netplwiz. It worked there. I've also noticed Spotify opened fine, which is odd. What could be causing this? Any suggestions on how to resolve it? Thanks ahead of time and I hope this gets fixed.
Reinstalling windows seems likely to help. However, it appears the original admin account might be damaged. Microsoft has an article that may offer some guidance, though its usefulness is uncertain. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topi...5d3cc29657
