Problem with shortcut error message

Problem with Shortcut

The item 'finPOWERConnect32bit.exe' that this shortcut refers to has been changed or moved, so this shortcut will no longer work properly.

Do you want to delete this shortcut?

Additional Information

Every time the PC was rebooted, when clicking on the finPOWERConnect Icon the error said the application had been changed or moved.

The icon was left on the Desktop and most of the files were showing within the installation folder, however, the file "finPOWERConnect32bit.exe" was removed.

The file was deleted completely from the PC with nothing showing in the recycle bin. As a quick fix the Client reinstalled finPOWERConnect.

Solution

  • It was found that the Client is using an Anti-Virus program called "Trend Micro", which excluded 32-bit.exe files.
  • Build an exclusion for 32-bit.exe files on startup.
