Just some thoughts: Is this a fresh install of E-sword? If so I would uninstall it, redownload from the e-sword site, install and see if any of the resources work. If they do then try downloading a resource, install it and see if that works.

I have tried numerous times to download e-sword for the e-sword website and I keep getting the same errors: cannot open the strongs.dcxt
So now I completely removed the e-sword from my computer. Please help me find a link to a download that does not contain errors.

Be sure to delete the file you originally downloaded from your computer, go to the e-sword site and download and install it.

http://www.e-sword.net/downloads.html and toward the bottom there is a down arrow.

If you still have trouble check a couple things and post your findings.

1. Go to program files/e-sword in windows explorer and see if you have files there, see if a strongs.dctx file is there.

2. Open E-sword and go to options/resource and toward the bottom be sure it says c:/program files/e-sword.

Someone should be able to get you up and running. Any information will help others to help you.

This problem isn't an e-Sword download with errors, and so the solution isn't finding a download without errors. The problem is most likely a configuration issue of some type. See Excentric's post above for 2 very good possibilities. If that doesn't work, then please tell us your operating system, whether you upgraded or this was a fresh install, whether your running on a pc, linux, or mac, etc.
