Failed to find file "C\Users\..."

Post by Rubisaj »

When I try to Build and View so I can make a pdf file, it just says Failed to find file "C\Users\..." with the rest not shown. I have no experience with Latex but I have tried looking through posts in forums with similar problems but I can't find anything. Really starting to irritate me since I need to use this program for my class.

Thanks.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p
