The information in this article applies to:

 Microsoft Money 99 Microsoft Money 98 Microsoft Money version 5.0 for Windows 95 == Microsoft Money versions 4.0, 4.0a for Windows 95 == 

= SYMPTOMS =

When you start Microsoft Money, you may receive one of the following error messages:

Microsoft Money. The path is not properly set up in the registry or has been moved after running Money’s Setup. Please re-install Money. Otherwise, Money may not be able to run properly.

-or-

Money is unable to load the file ‘C:Files Money.dll.’ Either the file is missing or your system is low on memory. First, try closing some other applications. If this doesn’t work, you may need to reinstall Money from your original product disks.

= CAUSE =

This error message occurs in either of the following situations:

  You moved the Money program files on your hard disk since running Setup. -or-   You haven’t run Money Setup on this computer. 

= RESOLUTION =

If you manually moved Money to a different folder on your hard disk, or if the Money folder has been renamed, run Money Setup again from your original product disk. If you downloaded Money during the free trial period, run the Money download file (Moneymsn.exe or Moneyweb.exe) again to start Setup.

If you have changed computers, you must run Money Setup on the new computer. You can’t just copy the Money files to the new computer.

= MORE INFORMATION =

Money Setup writes the location of the Money program files to the Windows registry. If these program files are moved, you need to run Setup again to register the new location.

NOTE: You must run Setup from the Money product disks, not by running Add/Remove Programs in the Windows Control Panel. Add/Remove Programs looks for Money Setup in the registered path; however, this path is incorrect if you moved Money manually.
