Hi Thomas,
Thank you, but the thing is, neither of my computers running XP have a
c:\users\ folder. So I do not think that I will be rewriting all of my 35
games and make them so that they would no longer function on my computers.

Hi Jim,
Correct. On Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 UAC won't allow
you to write to c:\Program Files or c:\Program Files (x86) because
they are protected operating system directories. The only two
solutions are to either turn UAC off, which disables some of your
security, or move them to a local directory such as c:\Users\Your User
Name\Kitchinsinc. Either that or update the programs to save the log
files to the proper places on modern Windows versions such as the
user's App Data folder.
Cheers!

Hi Curt,
I have heard of the same problem from others. The problem seems to be that
my games write to a file such as the save game or log file etc and the UAC
of Windows no longer likes that in program files. So I guess that you need
to either turn off the UAC or move the kitchensinc folder out of program
files.
I hope that helps.
