Hello HAFFL,
Sorry to hear about your trouble. To begin with, please try performing the following steps:
- Start Steam and right click on DayZ in your game library (make sure that the game is not running).
- Select the tab labeled "Local Files".
- Click on the button labeled "Verify integrity of game cache...".
- Start DayZ once the process is complete.
Also, please try to run both Steam and DayZ as Administrator: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/305780
The reason for you receiving this Windows error message seems to be due to either of the following:
- You do not have permissions to the file or the file location.
- The file is on a location that is not currently accessible like a network location or an external drive that is not currently connected to the PC.
- The file has been moved or deleted.
- The file or shortcut is corrupt.
- The file may be blocked by Windows.
- Your antivirus software may be blocking the file.
