Firefox prompts an error when I tried to open an HTML file

Question

When I try to open an HTML file with Firefox, I get an error message similar to the following one:

Windows cannot find 'E:\blar blar\something\example.htm'. Make sure your typed the name correctly, and then try again.

How can I solve this problem?

Is E: drive a subst drive and you are running Firefox in a different context than the command window you used to subst the drive? E.g. command window in the admin context and Firefox in the limited user context?

the error says the name is wrong, you might have typed it in incorrectly.

open the folder E:\blar blar\something and double click, or drag the file 'example.htm' into firefox.

	it could be also because your filename is example.html , not example.htm – DBZ_A Apr 15 '11 at 11:50
	i already double click the file but it pop-up . – Naing Lin Aung Apr 15 '11 at 12:24
	it wd be good if you could post a sceenshot of the error . seems like you are getting a msg window from javascript or like. – DBZ_A Apr 15 '11 at 18:04
