F:\Application not found

Question

Hello,

I know there have been many topics on this subject already, but none of the answers have solved my problem, which is why I'm bringing it up again.
Actually, I have a WD 5000AAJ EXTERNAL USB DEVICE 500GB hard drive that was working perfectly well; I lent it to a friend and now it doesn't work anymore.
When I double-click it, I get an error message that says F:\Application not found, and I don't even see the hard drive logo anymore. I now have to right-click and select open to access my hard drive.
I found an answer on your site which says I need to go to the properties of my hard drive, then tools, and check for errors. After the check, I can open it just once with a double click and then it shows F:\Application not found again.

PLEASE HELP ME, I need assistance

Configuration: Windows Vista Internet Explorer 7.0

In fact, it's simple "maybe" to find the logo, the same thing, you do
start menu > run > type cmd then enter
in the window that opens type the following instructions, one by one each followed by enter:

cd\
f:
attrib -a -s -h -r
del *.ini
exit

Thank you for marking the problem as Resolved.

Wait, your report is a bit long, it's going to take some time. --  zboot

Ok, I’m waiting for the report. However, for the logo, when I do del *.ini, it shows me "Cannot find F:\*.ini".

No risk in your report, except for one entry, but that's not a big deal. You can try to find your logo.  --  zboot

Thank you very much for your help, really nice.
Well, that erases everything I have on my external hard drive
" The volume in drive F is called Elements
The serial number of the volume is B21F

Directory of F:\
06/09/2007 19:09 <DIR> SERIES
12/02/2008 12:24 348 160 msvcr71.dll

Well, I have another issue to say. I tried to insert a DVD and nothing shows up, I can't even see my CD drive displayed.
Oh dear, this is starting to annoy me.

I don’t see why?!!! Try restarting your PC. --  zboot

lol it's okay thanks for your help. actually I restarted my computer and now everything is working again
my DVD drive is working and my external hard drive is also working well, and even the autorun function has reappeared but still no logo

if you find a solution for that it would be great but already I think you have done a lot for me

if possible I have another issue to ask you about word. when I write in word, when I make a mistake on a word or even to delete a word I have to use delete I can no longer use the <– key

Anonymous user · Answer

I use Office 2003.

Sorry, I totally forgot, I’m going to look for it with a friend who is still using it. Otherwise, you can reinstall it. --  zboot

Hello,
I followed your suggested solution to the letter and my USB key opens normally, but for my hard drive it's still the same thing. I tried to apply the same process to the disk (C: instead of F:), but a message appears saying roughly that the command cannot be applied.

Anonymous user · Answer

unfortunately, the same procedure applies to internal drives. if after restarting your PC the problem still persists, then I strongly believe that a registry modification will be necessary. --  zboot

I deleted one or more files autorun.exe and autorun.ini and I no longer know which ones or their location. I lost the advantages of automatic content playback from CDs and flash drives and other functions like automatic burning launch by Nero.
Thank you for helping me solve this problem.

Hello, I'm sorry to bring this conversation up again, but I have a slight problem:

So I did what you said, I displayed the files and so on... However, when I type the command attrib -a -s -h -r, it says:

Access denied - C:\bootmgr
Unable to modify attribute - C:\pagefile.sys

And when I subsequently type del *.inf:

Cannot find C:\*.inf

Just so you know, I performed these actions on the hidden admin session (which I activated through the registry).

What should I do?

I would also like to mention that I just realized that now when I put in a CD, it no longer says E: application not found but acts as if there isn't one (basically it tells me to insert a CD in the drive and then it opens...) What should I do again?

Thank you in advance!

1. You go to the disk management of your machine (by right-clicking on Computer and selecting Manage)
2. You change the drive letter of your flash drive, CD, or DVD
3. You close the disk management window
4. Everything is OK
