ohai its me again >.>

Post by xYeta »

I recently downloaded a maplestory private server, first off I can't extract it but I manage to extract it through safe mode. But now the prob is, I can't start the .exe program, the .exe file should looks like a mushroom icon but its just a blank thing. And when I click on it, it shows me this message:

and I also could not move, rename and delete it. :( I wanted to play that game so badly, and I know many computer doctors are here ;-) . Any help much appreciated!

Download a better one, (cough) like Rydah (cough).

Oh, and make sure you're on an account that has admin privileges, but I'm sure you should have known that :S.

What verison of windows do you have exactly? It'd help to tell you where the problem is. Since each windows has it's own issues...

About being unable to delete it - reboot. If it will still remain undeletable... you got problems.
As it's the loader (as I guess), it needs to be in the same folder as the game to run properly.

It's still undeletable even after a restart, well like after the windows started, it was a mushroom icon for awhile then change back into the blank thing again. And ya it's in the same folder.

If I can't still get this fixed soon, guess that server just hates me. :D

Make sure no programs are blocking it, turn off firewall and all antivirus programs and try to run it. If that doesn't work turn all those back on. If it does add the program to the program exception list and turn all those back on.

Make sure to right click it and click Run as Administrator.

As YellowAfterLife said some programs need to have other files in certain folders or the .exe needs to be in a certain folder.

Another way is to right click the .exe file and go to properties. At the bottom right of some types of windows there is a block/unblock buttom. Unblock the program if this is true and you can see the button.


Also try to start the program in Safe Mode and see if you can open the file or programs in question. If so, it’s not a actual permission issue, it’s a program or process on your computer that is giving the error.
