This is for good-old historical reasons. And, possibly, the developers thought it was to much work to adjust their installation/product to fit in with the restrictions found in Vista and later versions. Comes from lumping data files together with program files. From Vista onwards, program code was supposed to be installed in a protected area (\Program Files\Millennia\Legacy) and data was supposed to have been split between application data (\Program Data\Millennia\Legacy) and user data (\My Documents\Millennia\Legacy). Too much work! -- Regards, Mike Fry Johannesburg (g) Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
