Richard and David,
Windows versions, if installed in C:\Program Files\ (or C:\Program Files(x86) for 32 bit versions on 64 Bit OS)) should write any needed data to the C:\Users\<uesrname>\AppData\Roaming\FreeDV\ folder. This has actually been the preferred method since Windows XP, but has only been enforced since Windows 8, from what I understand. Doing it this way avoids the privilege escalation that occurs when running the software as Administrator, which is just as dangerous (if not more so) than running applications as root user on Linux.

I think I am just writing a log file as a debug feature anyway, so it can be disabled.It also seem like maybe we should install to a different program files directory on 64bit systems? If we can determine where that is, then I should be able to adjust the settings for the NSIS installer.Thanks, Richard KF5OIM ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Freetel-codec2 mailing list Freetel-codec2@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freetel-codec2
