I hope someone can explain what arc.exe error 2 means.
On this moment it is not possible to create a "res" file from an "arc"
I use xBase V2.0 build 1037

I'm not sure but imagine that it's the system error code, so that it
means ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND (see [1]).

I had this error once because somehow the file encoding had been changed to
something different from ANSI.

AVG anti virus had place the file in quarantine.
