"Runtime Error 76 is a common message users see. The question then is, what does it mean and how can you correct this error?

This particular runtime error means "path not found." In simple terms, it means that the program cannot identify the correct location for writing its data. When that happens, the program does not know where to look, so it usually crashes or freezes"
The good news is that solving Runtime Error 76 is fairly easy. First, you should look for available patches and fixes for the program. These are generally available through the software manufacturer's web site and can be downloaded for free.

You may also want to run a check for viruses and spyware. In some cases, these invaders can alter directories or make other changes which could generate this type of error.

If you are still having troubles and you have already completed the other two steps, you may need to reinstall the program that is causing the error to appear. Remember to back up any files associated with the original installation so they do not get overwritten during the new installation. In most cases, the new installation works fine.

Sometimes the error does not come from the program but from the operating system itself. If this is the case, then you need to re-install the operating system. Although this can be time-consuming, it should alleviate the problems.

While Runtime Error 76 is not usually a serious problem, reinstalling a program or your entire operating system can be a nuisance. However, having way to correct the problems is better than not knowing what has gone wrong in the first place.
