Vista Issues - PLEASE READ

[Hubert Cater]

In some cases on Vista it saves files in the following directory:

Drive:\Users\User_Name\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\Battlefront\Strategic Command 2 Weapons and Warfare Expansion\

This link explains the 'Compatibility Files' problem with people running Vista and not being able to see thier files:

There are two known workarounds:

1) Disable Vista's User Access Control and then it should save the files as expected.

2) The other is that if you do not wish to disable UAC you can try and install the game into any other directory other than the Program Files directory.

For example, C:\Games\Weapons and Warfare etc. If you do this it doesn't seem to redirect the files with UAC enabled.

Hope this helps,

I went in and turned off the User Access Account and re-installed the game. Now I'm getting an error message saying it can't find Direct X 7 or higher. Anyone know how to deal with that one?

False alarm. After you load in all the patches it works fine.
