I can tell from the message that it didn't fail to find the program, so I took a look at the providex code. This message was added as the first line of code in version
2021.4 and in
2022.1 (I'm not sure about 2022.0) the program then exits immediately after displaying that message. This was intentionally disabled by Sage. I'm guessing that maybe the tables have changed in those installations that would cause problems if you ran the program?
If the programmers needed to disable it this was the best way to do it since that program already existed in that folder. So if you find an earlier version of the utility, I would
NOT recommend copying it into that folder and running it.

The utility does appear in both 2021/2022 folders. the 2022 version has a 2022 date. I did not attempt to run however.
