[Linker Fatal Error] Fatal: Expected a file name

 

 

 

 

 

Cause

 

This error occurs when you save your project in a folder with a 'strange' name, e.g. 'C:\C++'.

 

 

 

 

 

Solution

 

Your current program has become useless, so cut out all code and paste it in, for example, Notepad. Then do the following: 'Close All', start a new application, paste your code correctly, 'Save All' in a 'normally' named folder, for example 'C', 'Cpp', 'CPlusPlus', 'Programming'.
