This problem can be solved i’ll show you how:


Right click on the .exe file you are trying to run then select, properties
In Start in, change value from %HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH% to a system-wide value such as %WINDIR%.

Then Click on OK

You can manually change the directory name and set it in your C:/Program Files.
this problem started only before 4 days and i am not finding any value as u said in the answer. is there any other way. the error message is directory name is invalid. it is for only exe files other files are installing.
