If you are compiling something then this is probably the result when you forgot to include the exact path of the file. Locate first the actual location of the file gameinfo.txt using Windows Explorer. Click on the address bar to highlight the entire text then press CTRL + C to copy the file’s real path. See image.

In the example above, the complete path of the gameinfo.txt file is “D:XP ExtensionProgram FilesMicrosoft GamesAge Of Empires I”. In your case, copy the path of your gameinfo.txt file then insert it in the project you are compiling and then compile it again. And by the way, the site “www.valve-erc.com” is no longer available and I think it is already parked.

It would also help if you’ll read some of the documentations that come with your program. It should contain some manuals and other instructions.
