Those errors all mean the same thing.  You've got a bug in your code.

But since you don't show your code, all we can do is guess.  All of 
those refer to missing files.  The first two are missing when you try to 
open them, so we can be pretty sure they're not in the current directory.

In the third case, you're calling listdir() with a directory name with 
asterisks in it.  And those aren't legal in Windows.  Fix the directory 
name, perhaps to  "Z:/Your_documents/someplace/else/complicated/"  Of 
course, you probably don't ahve that directory either, but it's more 
likely than the one you specified.
