Unable to load the requested file: helpers/files_helper.php

I am getting error in my codeignitor application:

Unable to load the requested file: helpers/files_helper.php

Can you please elaborate where is the issue?

File: autoload.php

<?php

The path in my codeigitor application of this file is application/config/autoload.php I'm just trying to login from the base URL: http://crm.thecoder.pw/ And I'm getting this error: Unable to load the requested file: helpers/files_helper.php

My solution was to move my custom_helper.php from application/helpers/custom_helper.php to system/helpers/custom_helper.php and in application/config/autoload.php $autoload['helper'] = array('custom');

Reload page and it work fine

I think it's a simple mistake that you have made, Replace below line of your code

$CI->load->helper('files');

by

$CI->load->helper('file');

I think you have created helper in application/helpers folder.
You have to create helper in system/helpers folder instead of application/helpers.
Then load $this->load->helper('files');

There is no helper call files_helper. Use file

$this->load->helper('file');

or in /config/autoload.php

$autoload['helper'] = array('file');

EDIT 01

If you're creating new helper check this answer as well
