Windows Vista and later makes file virtualization for "Program Files", that's why we've changed the default location where The Bat! keeps mail. In earlier versions of The Bat!, it kept the MAIL directory in "Program Files\The Bat!", but now it keeps it in the %APPDATA% folder by default. It's better to avoid using virtulization (by not keeping the data in the "Program Files") There are some articles where the users are experiencing difficulties with the virtualization: http://www.west-wind.com/Weblog/posts/5584.aspx http://www.cloudsofheaven.org/2008/01/vista_file_virtualization.html And here is a common case described in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927387 : "Scenario 2: You cannot find the file or the folder that you just created When you use an application for which virtualization is enabled, you create data files in virtualizable locations of the file system. When you use another application or Windows Explorer to access these newly created files, you cannot find them. For example, if you save a file in a photo editing application in the %programfiles%, %systemroot%, %systemdrive%, or %programdata% folders, you cannot locate this file." -- Best regards, Maxim Masiutin mailto:m...@ritlabs.com ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 4.2.23.1 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
