Cannot read texture image

Cannot read texture image

Anonymous
Not applicable

When I start a new document or open a file in Inventor, I get a pop up saying: "Cannot read texture image C:\Useers\public\Documents\Autodesk\Inventor 2011\Textures\Chrome.dds"
 I moved the whole Autodesk file and changed all paths under settings>files in Inventor. The new path to Chrome.dds is C:\Users\Kaj\Documents\Autodesk\Inventor 2011\Textures\Chrome.dds  

 Inventor works fine but the pop up is really annoying. What can I do about it?

 

Thanks in advance.

where did you say you specified the texture file path?

 

the setting i know of from memory is found under application options, colours... filename. if you changed it there is it still doing it?

best regards,

Hi Mark, I am getting this error as well but do not quite understand your response. Could you state it in simpler, more thorough language? Here are my issues:

I don't know where to find Application Options. Do you have any advice for that?

Thank you

What i did was allow an app to have access to protected folders instead. (found inventor.exe in folder and selected it)
