Hi,
there is a problem with applications using win32com under systems like
Windows Vista or Windows 7. Current rthook uses application directory to
generate some python files. Usually it's somewhere in Program Files (or
Program Files x86). Unfortunately regular user doesn't have permissions
to write to such directory. Maybe it would be better to use temp
instead?? I've attached changed rthook file.
regards,
Krzysztof Jakubczyk
