Program file does not exist error



I have code for a c6745 using an XDS100v2 emulator and CCS 4.2.0.10017 that has been working fine. But this morning I tried downloading it using the debugger and it gave me the error  Exception occurred during launch Reason: Program file does not exist.   I'm using SVN as a repository and a co-worker can compile and run it fine.  We both updated using SVN and so we have identical code but mine still won't build or rebuild or download.  I am running under windows 7.   The hardware is fine because I can compile and download other projects just fine. Just don't know what could have happened to give me this error. When I try just building the project a small window flashes very quickly and goes away. It's too quick to read anything and far too quick to have built the code.  Any ideas of what to check?

       thanks

  •   The console window includes the following information


    Build error
    (Exec error:%1 is not a valid Win32 application.)

     

  • Solution:  I had installed a software driver for a wireless usb adapter that unintentionally created a file called "C:\Program"  (probably because it ran a script to store a file in "Program Files" but didn't use quotes. )  I guess this somehow messed up the search for files under Program Files when using Code Composer. By uninstalling the driver and deleting the c:\Program    file everything started working again.  I don't understand why this would be a problem for Code Composer but it was.
