Scratch won't open!

I am new and when I first downloaded Scratch 1.4 I saw a message:

Squeak cannot locate the sources file named/Applications/Scratch1.4/SqueakV2sources.
                        Please check that the file is named properly and is in the
                                                 same directory image.
                                            Further explanation can found
                      in the start up window, "How Squeak Finds Source Code'.
OK
____________
What is wrong?
What is wrong with Squeak?

I downloaded Scratch 1.2 and 1.3 instead, but I figured out there were ask blocks and 1.3 didn't had them, it would be perfect for my project am planning.

But I want to get on without this kind of problem!
How can I or Scratch fix it?

I really want this block

ask [What's your name?] and wait

Re: Scratch won't open!

What OS are you on?
And do you have admin rights on your computer?

Operating System.

Did you do any modifications? Does it have a gray/white border around the Scratch UI after you click OK?

Re: Scratch won't open!

Yes this just happened to me. I don't know the fix, but it happens when you close scratch with the fill screen off.

The fix is to save with fill screen on.

Actually, the fix is to save the image for end user with fill screen off (on a blank project?)
