I've been trying to launch Cheat Engine but every time I attempt to launch it I get an error message saying
CreateProcess failed; code 2.
The system cannot find the file specified.[/img]

Your system has been corrupted by malware that edits your registry so it blocks execution of cheatengine exe

Did you ever run ccleaner, black ops 3, or another game with multiplayer ?

anyhow, rename cheatengine-x86_64.exe to ponystrangler.exe and run that

Alternatively, you can try http://cheatengine.org/download/windowsrepair.exe and see if that works

I did try playing black ops 3 multiplayer. So I guess that's the reason. The windowsrepair tool worked. Thank you very much! Very Happy
