sounds like a problem with the .PRJ, try contacting whoever it was who made the .PRJ fixer program...
Hope you sort it out....

Either you moved or deleted your TGA file, or it has a space in the name. You can't have a space in the filename, Core decided a space would mark the end of the name. The LE freaks out on that.
My project fixer will fix it, by changing the TGA name in the project to the Windows short filename, which eliminates the spaces.

Thanks everyone, but I have to give the credit to aktrekker. Because I got fed up and decided to uninstall the editor. After doing so I changed the file names and then realized that it was the problem all along.
I did have a space in the file names.
Thanks again
