"error CS2011 : Error openin response file..." ??

Why do i always get this error message whenever i try to debug or compile something :

"error CS2011 : Error openin response file 'c:\Documents ' -- ' the system cannot find the file specified "

this is after i uninstalled and reinstalled the compiler. Is there a way to remedy it

    but i've tried saving else where and the same error keep surfacing anyway so where do i put the double-quotes

    I'm kinda new to all this.

    "c:\Documents", sounds like Vista. Or your PC is pretty messed up and has the standard folder names (like c:\documents and settings) all scrambled up. You might be able to avoid this by changing the location of your TEMP environment variable...

    I don't know about the scrambled up part but yea changing the location of my temp environment variable has solved the error thanks alot. i've created a totally new temp folder and got my current environment variables pointing threre. However i got another question : will my this action affect other programs

    Other programs will start using your new TEMP folder too, no problem...

    Somewhere a file is being written to a subfolder of your "My Documents" folder (probably under the "Visual Studio Projects" folder). Since the full pathname of that file contains several spaces, it needs to be wrapped in double-quotes, and it isn't.

    Hi kTnX

    I had once yhe same kind problem with an other compiler. However, the solution may be applicable today too. So what I did

    I made simple front end program whitch pretented to be compiler, but only logged the activation parameters and then launched the real compiler. By reading the log file, you can verify paths used. Simple solution for file access error (CS2011)!
