Windows cannot find C:\"...".exe please check that you have entered

Hello,

For a while now, I've had an issue launching .exe files on my computer. I did try to install OpenOffice, but when I run the "setup.exe," a pop-up appears with this error: "Windows cannot find C:\... .exe, make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again."

But this issue is not only occurring with OpenOffice; it happens with many other programs (not all, which is what's strange).

I have tried various solutions suggested by users on other threads (Anti-Adware, redoing .reg files, .reg fixes, etc.), but none of them worked, which is why I'm creating my own thread.

Thank you in advance,

Flo

Configuration: Windows 7 / Chrome 28.0.1500.95

      I have exactly the same problem but I found a "solution":
      You just have to put it in a WinRar file. Running it is not easy, that's true, but it's the only solution I've found :/ Sorry

      By copying and pasting the .exe file and keeping the filename Copy of .exe it works.
