Vista giving you a Server Execution Failed?

Can't get to the right directory? Are you trying to change to a directory that has spaces in the name? If so, you'll need to put quotes around the string. Spaces indicate another piece of data (generally, a parameter), which is why you're getting the "too many parameters" error.

I keep forgetting how all of you young'ns don't know your DOS commands. LOL

Well I must thank Todd for posting his method as it seem to work, unless I was suppose to restart after using that other command line someone suggestion? and also Grez for reminding me that when spaces are involved you need quotes this is actually universal for most thing i should have known =\

LOL...no worries! You're certainly not the first one to forget about that. It's ingrained in my brain, having grown up in the pre-Windows days.

after about 6 hours of stumbling around on Home Premium, I finally found this fix on here!

First run CMD as Administrator

Type:

Press Enter

Restart
