Dear Sir,

I have recently upgrade to Window 7 from Vista.


I cannot open the Clamwin scanner anymore.


An error message "An error occurred while starting Clamwin Free Antivirus Scanner. Errno: 22 Invalid argument.


How can I fix this problem?


Thanks

check your %comspec% variable. It sometimes becomes invalid during OS upgrade.
See this for more info:

I have checked with the Comspec. The result is:-

ComSpec=C:\WINNT\system32\cmd.exe


Is it correct for Window 7?


Thanks

Hi,

I have changed it to

ComSpec=c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe


The result is the same. Still cannot open the Clamwin.
