Problem w/ music converter get odd error message

[telepod]

Hello all, I'm new to this forum and to the prog so bear w/ me. I have ver. R15 running on win 8.1. I recently loaded the program and tried to convert a flac file i have to a mp3. I set flac to standard VBR mp3 but i get this message when i try to execute. Ideally i'd like to use the other setting to get a higher bit rate but thought i'd try simple convert at first.

Error converting to mp3 (Lame), 'C:\Users\me\Music\Ambulance LTD - LP (2004) [FLAC]\07 Sugar Pill.flac' to 'C:\Users\me\Desktop\07 Sugar Pill.mp3'
Error running CoreConverter

Any help would be appreciated.

It means something is blocking dBpoweramp from running one of its own programs, likely your security software.

Hello Spoon, thanx for the reply. I turned off all anti virus, firewall and malware apps and am not connected to the internet but am still unable to get the core converter to run- argg. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

Check the program 'coreconverter.exe' exists in the install folder for dBpoweramp. There have been reports that norton (and possibly others) are removing files.

Comodo firewall has been shown to block coreconverter.
