Failed to Create Process Error, WTF!

So, I've been working on a game for months now, and today I wanted to do a little test run for lag, so I compressed the data (un encrypted, that was a mistake). Everything went fine, and it made a extracting file. I tried extracting it but it would just stop. So after saying fuck it, I open up the game file, and tried to do a play test but now its say "Failed to Create Process" every time I try to play test it.
All the information is still there. Any one have any ideas how to fix this?
its really pissin me off. thanks guys.
 
You really should have more patience.  It sounds to me like the data got corrupted when you stopped it, but I'm probably wrong.  Try compressing the data again with the encrypting.  Good luck!

Oh, by the way, there's an anti-lag script in the Submitted RGSS/RGSS2 Scripts forum.

You don't need to compress and extract to playtest, just use the "Playtest" button in the editor, or click the game file in the folder you made it in.

That's the problem.  He can't playtest it.

Could you elaborate on this? What do you mean, it would just stop?
 
Well, after messing with it for an hour, I realized it would probably take me less time just to start a new project and copy, and past every single little tile, and event over to a new game. It took me about 3 hours but at least the new one is working. Thanks for your help guys, and I'll check out that anti-lag script, maybe it will work. Again, I can't thank you guys enough.

I look forward to showing you guys my game.

:crazy: There's a much faster way, you know. Next time just copy the "Data" folder over.

Good luck on it, anyway.
