- | If you're getting this message, you probably have recently replaced a hard drive or removed a flash drive that you had previously configured for some personal settings or any number of other things than can confuse Windows and/or the Java VM that ECMLink works under. | ||

- | To confirm, pull up regedit and go here: | ||
- | |||
- | HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders | ||
- | |||

- | |||
- | To correct this, you can either delete all those hard coded values or change them to more appropriate values if you want. | ||
- | |||
- | You may want to first right click on the "User Shell Folders" item and select "Export" to save a copy of the current values before you go messing with them. | ||
