   There *may* not be any unless you have YTMAINT generating a high scores   
   bulletin.

   Are all of your dos doors in the \ele\doors\dosdoors directory?   
      
   Do you have only one YT game running?   
      
   I used to keep all my doors in one directory but eventually ran into issues   
   after I added a few doors.  Now they are all kept in separate directories   
   just in case two games happen to use the same file name.   
      
   I saw in a follow-up message that you tried running YTMAINT manually and it   
   still gave you the error.  With YT, I do know that there are instances   
   where a value (like a user's score or the Xanor's score) will grow too   
   large and YTMAINT will stop working.  That *does* require a game reset to   
   fix it.  I do not remember the error message it gives, though, but I don't   
   think it is an error regarding path or file violation errors.   
      
   If you have run out of options to fix it, a reset or reinstall might be the   
   only options left unfortunately.
