That's different from the icons pointing at Multiview. That means the
icons point at AACDfile and AACDfile is trying to invoke Multiview. A
different problem with a different solution.

It means your AACDfile preferences are set to use Multiview for this
type of mod, or the mod isn't recognised by AACDfile. Use AACDprefs to
sort the first, to deal with the latter you'll have to read the IDer
docs on creating new filetypes.
