Windows 10: Access denied on run executable programs?

Post by *Radovan »

Hallo, I just updated to Windows 10. I am not able to use Total Commander (8.52a or 8.5x too). I can run TC, I can browse through directories but I can not run executable programs (directly or associate). I get this error "Access denied!" If I run TC as admin, or user - still the same.

Can you halp me?

Radovan

P.S. If I run some associated programs (extensions), I get error? "Error executing program (8)!"

I guess this has nothing to do with TC.
Can you run programs and documents in Windows Explorer ?

Yes, I can run programs in Windows Explorer. But ... May be you are right. If I move TC in another directory, with another name, TC runs without errors :-(

I'll try to solve it and let know. I hate big update :-D (W10)

Thanks

Do not install TC into Program Files.
We are not so S.M.A.R.T. as we imagine...

Why?

2Radovan
This sounds like something is blocking TC or modifying its behavior based on its path. Maybe a weird security solution. Or maybe broken Windows Compatibility settings.

When you have the TC in the original directory (and it doesn't work), check the executable's Properties->Compatibility tab. Under normal circumstances, nothing should be checked there.

Hello Radovan,
wincmd.ini
RestrictInterface= Disable parts of the user interface. Just build the sum of the following options:
[...]
128=ENTER key (run programs, open files)

Mal angenommen, du drückst Strg+F, wählst die FTP-Verbindung (mit gespeichertem Passwort), klickst aber nicht auf Verbinden, sondern fällst tot um.

My fault :-(

Sorry that I answer so late.
I analyzed the path to the TC directory in the Windows registry => I'm ashamed of my post.

With new Win10 I installed new firewall. Firewall blocked TC directory as an unknown program directory.

My fault. Sorry. Thank you all for your help.

No need to be ashamed. You had a problem, your posts contained info we could work with, you found the solution. At least we know this kind of problem can really happen.
