I'm getting Error Window that says this: You must enter full path with drive letter, for example C:\APP or a UNC path in the form: \\server\share.

I've done a System Restore back 2 weeks, this Error Window started popping up last week.

Any solutions or suggestions out there? Running Windows 7, SP1 with all current updates.

Thanks, Bill

You appear to have some agent that interferes with Windows while in Normal Mode but not while in Safe Mode. Here is how you can find out what it is:

- Boot into Safe Mode

- Click the Start globe

- Type the word msconfig in the Search box and press Enter

- Untick every tick mark under the Startup tab.

- Click the Services tab, then tick the box that hides the Microsoft services.

- Untick every remaining tick mark.

- Physically disconnect the machine from the Internet.

- Reboot in Normal Mode.

- If this fixes the problem, restore the tick marks in groups of 4 until you find the culprit, then leave it unticked.

- Restore your Internet connection when finished.
