"Access is denied"
As a result of a procedural Windows error on my part, when I now try to open
an .ogg file (an audio format) I get the following message. "Access to the specified device, path or file is denied" (the message is referring to the file, since it won't open from any location). In addition, when I now try to check off the option in Media Player Classic to handle this file the box will not accept the checkmark. (The error was trying to use the shift, right-click "open with" command from inside a dialog box in the media player player. Dumb.) |

Sorry Alex, I forgot to phrase that in the form of a question. How do I
re-establish access to this file type? Roger Fink wrote: As a result of a procedural Windows error on my part, when I now try to open an .ogg file (an audio format) I get the following message.
