That applies here. If it works, don't mess with it. There is almost no reason why Legacy 7 shouldn't run in the Program Files directory under Windows 7. Vista was a different issue. However, Legacy support says run it in the C:\Legacy directory, so if there is a problem you have to do it their way. Having said that, I would not recommend uninstalling and reinstalling just to put it where they want you to put it. As I said, if it is working, leave it where it is. I've been on Windows 7 since the beta and my Legacy 7 has always been in the Program Files directory. Haven't had a moment's problem. I'm now on the commercial version of W7 and it's still working with no problems. On Tue, Dec 29, 2009 at 1:06 AM, William H.
