PureBasic Forums - English

Hello. I'm very new to this forum, but thirty years ago, I wrote a program in what some would call "Old Basic". Ok. So I revised the program using PureBasic's Compiler. The Compiler showed me everywhere that was not compatible; and I fixed it. When PureBasic tried to link the program, I receive the following error message:
"POLINK fatal error The system cannot find the file specified". I know, thirty years ago, that the program worked. Has anyone had this situation? What is the work-around? Thanks.

Code ?

Without you have no chance of an answer ^^

That too, would be a problem in that the application code is proprietary and submitting it herein, would plain just give it away. However, Thanks for your reply.

Sounds like a permission issue to me. What operating system are you using? Try to uninstall then install PureBasic in another folder to which you can write as a normal user, for example C:\PureBasic.

I discovered that my anti-virus software was capturing essential files and claiming them to be rogue. So when I turned the anti-virus software off, temporarily, the application does run. Thanks to both of you for your help.

Don't do that. Simply put the whole PureBasic folder on the exception/white list of your anti-virus tool.
