Under Windows 7, I have just installed “Microsoft Visual FoxPro v.5” and it’s showing in the default program file folder. When I go for accessing logging in as a standard user, I can’t open and access it. It shows me an error message like the screenshot. What can I do? Please help me here.
‘Microsoft Visual FoxPro
Visual FoxPro cannot start. Cannot create program workspace temp files..’
Microsoft Visual FoxPro error has occurred
Hi there Alexander G Rogers
If the server’s workstation disk space is insufficient this problem will occur. But why only in Visual FoxPro?
Because Visual FoxPro crating temporary data on system drive
In order to solve this problem follow the steps shown below
Step 1 – go to default visual directory installation folder
Step 2 – Find for the file CONFIG.FPW
Step 3 – CONFIG.FPW if it does not include in it
Step 4 – In the end of the file add TMPFILES=<path> (path is the temporary directory)
Step 5 – Make the directory (of path) open for all the users
Step 6 – Make sure there are free space in the disk
Hope this answer helps you
