Hello,
I have just installed miktex and texnic center on a new windows 10 computer. When I compile my tex files, I get a " I can't find file .\fileName.tex"
I've tried moving the file but I get the same error.

I think I've figured it out. When I remove the spaces and specials characters from the file name, it compiles. I will have to do additional testing to confirm.

Though for graphics, the
grffile package can help, regarding images with spaces in file names:
