Hola Isidro
What are the parameters in File -> Preference -> QSO -> Secondary backup directory ? What are the parameters of the DXL file? Right click on the DXL file -> choose properties and remove the 2 marks in the bottom. See also http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/view-the-properties-for-a-f ile I have my DXL files in a Dropbox folder instead of the normal folder. I have no problem with saving the log. I am running Win 8.1. 73 de Joe, OZ0J -----Oprindelig meddelelse----- Fra: DX4WIN [mailto:dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net] PÃ¥ vegne af Isidro Acosta Hernandez Sendt: 2. april 2015 08:14 Til: Dx4win Foro Emne: Re: [Dx4win] Error saving log in Windows 8 Hello. Thanks to all for the replies. Here is further information about my friend's setup. > It sounds like either a file path problem or a User Security Setting > problem with Windows 8. > > Make sure your friend is running the program as Administrator, with > full privileges to create/change files and folders. My friend installed the program running as Administrator, and so he does every time he runs the program. Note that the log IS saved as normal, but the error messages appears every time. > This is a bit of a guess, but go into File->Preferences and then > select the QSO tab. There's a field labelled "Secondary backup > directory". Make sure that if there's anything in there, that it's a > writable directory, typically something right off c:\ or maybe under My Documents. The error message does not refer to the the secondary backup directory (we already checked that), but to the main storage (the "save" folder). > Create a directory such as C:/Ham Programs and install DX4Win (and all > other ham software) there. It sounds interesting. We are going to try it. Here is a video clip of what happends ("An image worths more than thousand words...") https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ncZvYaj5Tc&feature=youtu.be Once again, many thanks for any idea... 73 de Isidro, EA8NQ E-mail: ea...@hotmail.com ---------------------------------------- Visit the EA8NQ's web page (in Spanish): http://ea8nq.ure.es/ ---------------------------------------- ______________________________________________________________ DX4WIN mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:DX4WIN@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ DX4WIN mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:DX4WIN@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
