Something happened to my Vista because it NOT only happens to this HP vista
compatable program, but my Anti-virus stopped working because it could not
write to log files under that folder, I had to direct the logs to a folder
OUTSIDE of c:\ProgramData. I'm happt AVG allowed this. I need to get rights
back so I may install more programs. It seems like Vista LOCKED me out of
this folder. Gotta love it. Suggestions?
