VERR_PATH_NOT_FOUND means what it says. It tried to do <something> but couldn't because you told it to open a file in a folder (path) that doesn't exist.

Normally it should tell you what file it tried to open. If I knew that plus the context of the error message then it might be possible to suggest some way of fixing it.

Glad you're up and running!

In the future it would be a good idea to pay special attention to error messages. The exact text of the error message can often be copied to the clipboard with the error box's Copy button so it can be pasted to the forum.
