This is not a good question - we cannot work out from that little what you are trying to do.
Remember that we can't see your screen, access your HDD, or read your mind.
So perhaps it would help if we could see the relevant code fragments?

'handle the exception' is the obligatory (and lame) answer.
You have to understand why the exception was thrown (the exception object itself produces a lot of useful info) and then properly handle it in your application.
If you are not experiencing the problem on Windows XP then possibly the execption occurs because your application hit the UAC[^], but that's just a wild guess.
