Help a newbie with CLI Encoder

[CheechOZ]

I open up CD Grab, and it tells me to change the file extension in the CLI encoder folder. I go to the text document, open it with notepad, and I believe I am supposed to change it to whatever file I am encoding to, but it won't let me save the file! This is probably a simple thing, but what am I doing wrong?

Do you have write access to the folder? What version of Windows are you using and do you have Administrator privileges?

Do you have write access to the folder? What version of Windows are you using and do you have Administrator privileges?

I am running Vista Ultimate as the administrator, no other accounts on the PC! I have user account control enabled, but that doesn't seem to be the problem! Should I change user privileges for the file to full access?

I gave the user full control of the file, and now it worked! I just don't understand this Vista, I am the admin, why does this still happen? :thumbdown

Because notepad is not run as administrator but rather limited access rights. But the appdata folder should not be limited in anway to any program...

Actually, Spoon, I believe the CLI encoder.txt file is in the encoder folder in the dMC installation directory, hence the permissions problem.
