It was a corrupt icon link to vfp9.exe - Thanks again for helping.

Grady - 70 years old and still foxing. ;-)


>Thanks Craig. If I go into the VFP folder using explorer and double click vfp.exe it runs fine and I can open a project etc. Investigation revealed that when clicked, the icon on the home page produces/causes the error message. I'll create a link icon and see if that solves the issue.

>>Make sure the folder pointed to in config.fpw exists and you have full rights to it. If not defined, VFP should use the Windows temp folder. Make sure you have full rights to that folder.

>>>I am getting this error. Visual FoxPro cannot start. Could not load resources.

>>>I could not uninstall VFP either. I have tried a repair and overwriting the current installation, but the VFP start error is still in place.

>>>I have Windows 8.1, which recently was infected. After 441 updates from MS and scanning for malware and virus, Windows seems to be stable(ish)

>>>Any help appreciated.

>>>Trying to run VFP generates the error, but foxcode runs and looks like VFP. A project can be created.
