Error: "The system cannot find te path specified"

[#1]

Symptoms

Consider the following scenario:

• Your IT department installed YouSendIt Express for Windows using the 2.11.0 MSI file on a Windows-based computer or you downloaded and installed Express from the YouSendIt website.
• If you have Express open, or upon opening Express, you are prompted to upgrade.

In this scenario, the upgrade may fail with the following error message:

"The system cannot find the path specified."

The installation fails and the upgrade cannot proceed. When reopening Express, you will again be prompted to upgrade and receive the same error.
