Hi Mark,
If running it as an administrator doesn't work, it might be the other
warning is more vald. The message also says "check path", so that
might be wrong. Running it as an administrator will "repair"
permissions., but not paths. Your system probably just cannot find the
right file. So: check the path!
In my version of Frescobaldi (on Linux!), the path settings are to be
found in the menu's: "Settings / Configure Frescobaldi / Lilypond
Preferences" which do show me a window indicating which Lilypond it
will use. There is a "Configure" button for this. Check the path where
to find the executable file very carefully, just one character
(including caps, dots and spaces, etc.) makes an enormous difference.
Search the file lilypond.exe on your system, open a terminal window
and try: lilypond.exe --version to check if the file is really there
where you expect it to be. (Substitute your filename and the complete
path for "lilypond.exe". My advise: start with trying to avoid spaces
and all special characters in the path.
If it doesn't work mail me a print-screen (offline) of the settings-
dialog with details on the filename choosen.
Regards,
Wim.

After putting in code into Frescobaldi, I clicked the Lilypond icon.
The following error message appeared:
Starting lilypond-windows.exe 2.16.0 [Untitled]...
Could not start lilypond-windows.exe.
Please check path and permissions.
Two previous suggestions, which I followed, were to open as
Administrator and to set Frescobaldi preferences to use Lilypond.
Again after entering code and clicking the error message appear.
Thank you for your kind attention.
