No need to be rude, Mr smercurio.

 

Just because you are Knight here, does not mean you should go trolling for an argument with newbies.

You'll forgive me if I take your criticism with a grain of salt.

I -am having the same problem.  I am trying to write a tab delimited text file and it never worked when I have my installer install the exe in Program files location. I then switched the installation to C:\.  It doesn't write there all the time. Sometimes it does and sometimes it doesnt. I finally relented and changed security options on C:\ because this is getting really annoying. The fact is, it is very inconsistent when it comes to writing it to the file. Is there something I can do differently?

I may not be perfect, but I'm all I got!

Hi VeeJay,

 

by default, everything in Program Files is read-only.

 

To make a file or folder read/write, you need to specify this in your installer.  See here for instructions:
