Auto-updated Zotero yesterday, today cannot open

jwaitner
I accepted the update request yesterday and did not go back to using Zotero, now I can't get into my Windows version, I receive the following message. "Windows can not access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item." I am assuming the item referenced here is the Zotero.exe file. Have searched for it and it seems to be gone. Want to report this issue and understand if I should download the latest edition or how should I progress to get operability back. Need this for my dissertation work this weekend. Thanks, John

    You should redownload Zotero and reinstall it. Your Zotero data will not be lost if you reinstall it. Make sure security software on your computer is not falsely blocking/detecting Zotero as malware.
