So I manage to get Launcher running with downloading pharolauncher zip and then downloading pharo 3 and joining the two folders. Launcher now runs but I dont want it to store images in my c drive so I go to preferences and tell it where in my D drive to save images (D:\software\PharoImages) I press enter and I am getting this error
