In V7 goto settings and set the path names to the correct paths for each folder.

As soon as I close the error message it closes the program

Ok, do this: using the Window File manager/explorer, goto the folder you see specified in the error message, and create the file calc_pids.txt.

The path name has to ve the same as in the error message:

c:\Users\Mike\Documents\EFILive\V7.5\User Configuration

Note that ThisPC maps to C:\ which is not the same as C:\Users\Mike.

Thanks Joecar, here is the fix (thanks Paul)

Close down all EFILive software.
Run "regedit" (click on start button and start typing regedit then select the "Registry Editor" option that appears.
Locate the key: \\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\EFILive\Software\V7.5
Delete it which will delete it and all its sub items.
Close regedit.
Restart V7.5
