    Basecamp Won't Open-- Error Message

    I have been running Basecamp successfully on Windows 8.1. It's been a few months since I had cause to use it, and clicked my icon.

    The program won't start-- I get an error message: "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item."

    I tried every solution on the Web for fixing that error in other programs-- changing my permissions settings, etc., even uninstalled and reinstalled Basecamp, same exact thing still occurs.

    Can anyone please help?

      Have you tried running it as an administrator?
      Currently own Drive 50LMT-D, Nuvi 2508LMT-D, Nuvi 1490LMT, Nuvi 1310, Montana 650T, Etrex 20, and use Basecamp, OSM mapping

        Also sounds like BC was uninstalled so the shortcut can't find the programs EXE file.
