If this doesn't help can you advise the file name as it may be a protected system file
What do you mean by a registry scan as that doesn't usually show up a corrupted file except as a faulty link

Once you have done that you will be able to see the full file name if explorer is set to show details
Report back

Quote from: Oldjim Open explorer and click on Tools then Folder options then View and then untick Hide extensions for known file types
Once you have done that you will be able to see the full file name if explorer is set to show details
Report back
That is me unchecked the hide extensions fo known file types. Do I need to restart the computer?
