Hello everyone,
I know this is most likely an easy one for you guys. I am getting back into running a server again, it's been a little over a year since I've had one. I've got Covid right now, so I thought I'd finally get back to setting up the old server. This simple error on startup is driving me nuts. I remember getting it back then, but for the life of me can not figure it out again. I've done the basic steps that I've found online but no luck.
Currently, I have a separate folder with the 7DTD dedicated server installed by SteamCMD. The serverconfig.xml and startdedicated.bat are still in their default state. When I go to start the batch file I get, "Windows cannot find '7DaysaToDie'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and try again." I run it as administrator with the same result. I am also getting no ouput.log files to chase the error as I remembered doing in the past. Is this a directory location thing or what?
What can I provide to help you all help me, remember I have no log files showing up after attempting to start up server.
- I'm running the latest version of 7DTD
- the location of server files is "C:\Program Files\Servers\7DaysToDieServer"
- the StartDedicated.bat is in it's default state.
- I've tried to install a fresh copy in a different location and get the result.

I'm sure there is a topic out there that can help, I'm just not searching for the right topic, or just plain can't find it.
Thanks everyone,
