| | A question about UAC One of my legacy applications has problems with UAC - it just doesn't like the Virtual Store. My workaround is to create the directory "c:/users/myusername/my program files" and install the application into there. The program then works perfectly, but I'd be interested in hearing if this is an acceptable (and secure) solution to the problem. -- Exiddor. |
