Looks like a Windows user account issue. You may not have "read & execute" permission assigned.
Did you check your permissions? Right-click the file, go to "properties" and "security", check the permissions. You'll have to be admin to change them.
Yeah im having the same problem, arma 2 OA will not validate on Steam and im getting that picture the original poster showed, I tied the read and execute method and nothing changed, any other remedies? I've had arma 2 and Arma 2 OA before and played the DayZ mod fine, but I deleted them for awhile and redownloaded them and having problems. ):
