Hi, a player is trying to open a game and is getting the following message:
"Could not execute
C:\Users\IBM_ADMIN\AppData\Local\wz3c17\samplegame-pc\lib\windows-i686\samplegame.exe.
Is it missing?"
Has anyone ever encountered an error message like this before?
Any advice appreciated. Thanks!

Or it could be this:PyTom wrote:Chances are that C:\Users\User\ has your real name in it. I'm guessing that you have some sort of non-ASCII character in your name, and your system is set to an encoding that can't represent the characters in your name. So you want to change your system's encoding to one that can represent your name.

Or maybe it's the antivirus issue:inCHAINS2609 wrote:My computer restore itself to an earlier point and my Microsoft C++ 2008 got corrupted so the side-by-side no longer work properly.
I just had to download it again.

In my case "Kaspersky Internet Security" was blocking Ren'py
After adding the Ren'py folder and subfolders to the "Whitelist" my problem was solved.

Thanks for your help Divona!
I'll ask about those issues!
I do wonder why Renpy would be trying to open the .exe in \AppData\Local when the game is installed in the downloads folder.
