Windows cannot find "'C:\Documents'.

Lisa

I am having terrible problems with error messages when I turn on my PC.

I'm getting the following error messages, in this order...

Windows cannot find "'C:\Documents'. Make sure you typed the name correctly,
and then try again. To search for a file, click the Start button, and then
click Search.

Desktop
Could not load or run "'C:\Documents' specified in the registry. Make sure
the file exists on your computer or remove the reference to it in the
registry.

Windows cannot find 'and'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then
try again. To search for a file, click the Start button, and then click
Search.

Desktop
Could not load or run 'and' specified in the registry. Make sure the file
exists on your computer or remove the reference to it in the registry.

Windows cannot find 'settings\owner\application'. Make sure you typed the
name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, click the Start
button, and then click Search.

Desktop
Could not load or run 'settings\owner\applications' specified in the
registry. Make sure the file exists on your computer or remove the reference
to it in the registry.

Windows cannot find 'data\adobe\manager.exe"'. Make sure you typed the name
correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, click the Start button,
and then click Search.

Desktop
Could not load or run 'data\adobe\manager.exe"' specified in the registry.
Make sure the file exists on your computer or remove the reference to it in
the registry.

I have no idea what's happened. All these programmes seem to be working
fine, but I keep getting these error messages whenever I turn on my PC. I've
even ran a scan disc and defrag, to no avail, and recently ran Windows Update
as well.

Can anyone help me please?

Sorry for the wrong discussion group, but I didn't know where to put this.

I have had this problem in my PC and i fixed successfully by finding
registry keys and delete it
all u have to do is
find C:\Documents and settings\owner\application data\adobe\manager.exe
in registry. and delete it
that's all.

ydoubleun

instead of owner, u may need to type ur user name.

like C:\Documents and settings\your user name\application
data\adobe\manager.exe

That symptoms are compatible with the behaviour of a Trojan.
The file Manager.exe in C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Application
Data\Adobe will show as not having an icon, or author information and
everything else.
Delete it. It is not from an Adobe product
Download Sysinternals Suite from http://www.sysinternals.com

and run autoruns.exe to cleanup your registry manually.

I hope this helps.

That trojan has a bug and was not installed correctly, so it gives errors,
for your luck. If it was coded correctly you would be already infected.
Google for malware +Manager.exe and you will find some info about that.

HELP :{

Guys, I almost have the same problem.
In my case, there is only 1 message/pop up:

"Windows cannot find "'C:\Documents'. Make sure you typed the name
correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, click the Start button,
and then click Search."

and when I turn off my computer there are several messages that pop ups and
then it turns off the computer...

I tried following the suggestions above, but I can't seem to be finding the
'RUN' file from the registry. or when I click FIND NEXT, It doesn't show any
results...

Please help me, I got this virus when I inserted my friends USB into my
computer, and then the next time I turned it on, it started showing. By The
Way, my operating system is windows XP.

Thanks again :p

You are in a discussion group for .NET programming issues, and you need to
find one for Windows XP. Here's how.

As you appear to be using a web interface, try this:

http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/en-us/

In the tree on the left, open English, then open Windows. In the Windows
subcategory, find and open the Windows XP subcategory, and
find a group there for your post.

You can also use your favorite search engine to find anti-virus and
anti-malware forums.

You mean, instead of Folder -> Windows NT -> CurrentVersion -> Windows
its probably:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> Software -> Microsoft -> Windows -> CurrentVersion ->
Run.

Or, I'm wrong? Because I think there isn't anything in Windows NT folder...
