htmlpad.exe on desktop Win32 error

Post by ozarklady »

Hello all, I have an icon on my desktop that is htmlpad.exe. When I click on it, I receive the error:htmlpad.ex is not a valid Win32 application. When I looked the error up on the web, it seemed that the exe file might have been corrupted somehow. The suggested fix was to uninstall and reinstall. I am using the trial version to see how everything works out on my system and to see how I like it. Does anyone know if I uninstall the trial version and reinstall, will I be able to finish my trial time? I think this might have happened because I updated WinXP sp1 to sp2 after installing HTMLPad 2004 Pro. Thanks for any help in this area.

Yes, you will be able to use your trial time. And yes, this is because your exe file somehow got corrupted.
