Hi Vinwin,

First of all, can you please tell us which Operating System are you using? Usually, the error code that you are getting is because the tally 7 software which was installed in your pc has been either moved or might have corrupted. You can try to do the following:

• Firts right-click on the file you want to open.
• Click Properties.
• Under the General tab, at the end of the window you should be able to see a security option like this: Security : This file came from another computer and might be blocked to help protect this computer.
• Click the button Unblock.
• Click Apply.
