\ is used for escape characters so to write \ in a string you need to write two \.
"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Adobe\\Adobe Photoshop CS5.1\\amtlib.dll"
or you can use forward slash.
"C:/Program Files (x86)/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop CS5.1/amtlib.dll"

Wait a second. You mean that this is all the code for a .dll replacement ? O.o Oh my God!

Yeah, its all for a dll replacement. Peter78 that didn't do it :-(.




I would love to just change the whole code to something else........... so come with solutions :-)

You need to run your program as administrator to see any changes.
Better use CopyFile() or SHFileOperation() API function.
