RE: how can I prevent windows to write my files at virtual store folde

Now I know that I will be in the right adress:

My software will make me believe that it is saving files in the folder I´ve
chosen, but the truth is that they are saved in virtual store.

The only caution I must have now is to not forget this and make my back up
from that virtual store folder.

d*mn.

*10 DAYS OF WORK LOST DUE TO THIS. IT WILL BE GREAT TO HAVE A NOTICE FROM
THIS CHANGES FROM XP TO VISTA BEFORE THIS KIND OF PAINFUL LEARNING.
