Re: Bad File Name error in simple C program

I think it's permissions related. I work in a very locked down enterprise with a virtual C drive. I have admin privileges, I have UAC turned off, I've granted full control on the MinGW directory and it's subdirectories, and the Bad File Error still happens about 1/3 of the time, mostly on the scanf function. I'm thinking scanf is looking for some file stream that I haven't granted permissions on yet. It sometimes happens on puts, too. It's like it happens when it has to read or write from standard input.

It's not a deal breaker, I can always use visual studio, but that's such a big lift for these simple programs I'd rather not if I don't have to.

FWIW, I cannot reproduce this problem, and have no idea why it happens for you.
