File Manipulation Lab

I’m working on the file manipulation lab (RE Course Challenge #5.exe) and have run into a problem. I created the file the program attempts to open, but I keep getting a file not found error. I have confirmed the path and filename are correct. I can use the path from the program to see the file. I’ve also checked that all user’s have permission to read the file and even tried reloading OllyDbg to ensure there isn’t any caching problems. Does anyone have any ideas?

I have exactly the same issue. I have tried in Win 10 and Win 7 with all rights granted to everyone, the issue persisted.
Did you get the issue solved?

I have reached out to support hoping that they can help.
I have tested in Win 10 and Win 7. I have changed the privileges of the subject file in case of privilege issue. I have also ran Olly as admin to ensure that it has access to the System32 directory… same result.

I’m hoping that this can be resolved to complete the hands on.
