[FC] Vista Ultimate 64-bit

G'day Folks,

After living inside FC/2 and then FC/W for something like 12 years, I never 
realised how much I depended on it.

Now that I have been co-erced down a path that sees me with Vista 64-bit 
installed on my machine, I have hit a wall.  FC/W doesn't appear to follow down 
LINKS.  For instance, "C:\Documents and Settings" is no longer a folder, but a 
link to C:\Users and an attempt to navigate to it gives me an "Access is 
denied. (5)" error message.  I can navigate to C:\Users without an issue, so 
the problem isn't my access rights to that directory, but rather the ability to 
follow the link.

Not sure if this is a 'unique to 64-bit windows' problem, or an 'any version of 
Vista problem'.  Since a few years ago they made me a Manager, whatever 
technical prowess I might have possessed has dribbled out of my ears.  I am 
hoping that there is something that I can configure within Vista that will 
remedy the situation.  I am logged on as an Administrator, and I am starting 
fcw.exe by selecting "Run As Administrator".  If you have any ideas, I am more 
than happy to hear them.

I spent a few days trying to navigate Windows using Explorer .. I even download 
and tried DOPUS and some other Windows File Manager (I'm so ashamed) that I 
can't remember the name of, but it just wasn't the same.  Be it ever so humble, 
there is no place like File Commander.

I am seriously suffering a productivity issue here.  Without FC/W I have to 
crawl around Explorer, and it is so uncomfortable that I am putting off things 
that I have to do.


Regards,
Jason Meaden.
