Problem With Editing Host Files "Make Sure That Path and Filename are Correct"
Hello everyone,
As you can tell from the title, I am having a problem with editting my host files. When I try to edit my host files, I uncheck "Lock Hosts as Read Only" in the tweaks tab, use the command prompt to go to host files, edit the files, save them, and then recheck the host files. I editted my host files many times before hand, but recently I have gotten the following message when I try to save my host files.
Cannot Create the C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
make sure that the path and the filename are correct
I don't know what to do, and I would greatly apperciate the help. Also, the computer I am using is a Toshiba laptop, I use Windows XP, and the version I spybot I have is 1.6.2.46. One other thing, I am not sure if this will affect spybot or not, but I recently got a big update on Cisco NAC Agent at the college I am staying at. I was not until after I got this new update, that I had trouble editting my host files (though note, the last time I successfully editted my host files was about a month ago). That is all, thanks for the help.
