huhr Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Hi, need some help, I try to save a pbem game in the dialogue box that pops up when asking me to save the turn. The appropriate box comes up but hen it won't allow me to save the turn. A message comes up saying I don't have administrator rights to save in this location. It wants to save it in the my documents area but I don't want it there? Any help? It worked fine with Vista but the Windows 7 reads it differently thanks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moon Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Believe the message that comes up :-) You need to run the game with full admin rights. Right-click, select properties for the game exe file, and set it to "Run as admin". Martin 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huhr Posted December 10, 2009 Author Share Posted December 10, 2009 Moon, This is what comes up when I right click on the text message from my Thunderbird email account. c:\programfiles (x86)\cmbb\pbem\ name of file.txt You don't have permission to save in this location. Contact the administrator to obtain permission. Would you like to save in the My Folder instead? All worked fine until today when I tried to play the game but this time it was through Windows 7. I did run the game as an administartor and I am the Admin for the computer. Any help is appreciated since I also use pbem helper thanks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huhr Posted December 11, 2009 Author Share Posted December 11, 2009 I ended up just saving to my folder which contains a folder called cmbb and then I believe the pbem helper program will hopefully recognize it, a lot of the forums have complaints about windows 7 and the inability to save directly to the root folder of the program. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
