gtf-launch error while building library

I'm getting an error using Build->Library that indicates gtf-lauch is not found which results in an Error 127 while trying to later open the output file. I've verified that gtf-lauch exists ...

Hmmmm, I can say that my working system is NTFS (WinXP) and non working system is FAT32 (Win2000). It seems odd that more people wouldn't have this problem if all FAT32 doesn't work.

Does anybody have this problem with a NTFS drive?

Previous anecdotal evidence implies OS upgrades, etc. have solved the problem although NTFS information is not available. Depending on sls's exact steps, it's not clear to me whether the act of reloading everything from scratch or switching to NTFS solved the problem, but either way it solved the problem.

sls - Did you use a FAT32 to NTFS conversion program or reload from scratch on NTFS system?

Monkeyboy - Any thoughts? Can you say for sure whether you tested FAT32 in your setups?

Certainly converting to NTFS or using NTFS if you are reloading everything from scratch seems like a recomended step to try at this time. Remember to backup critical files before you convert and other standard disclaimer stuff.

I'll try converting my FAT32 system to NTFS and report back, although it might be a while.
