Subject: Re: regarding flash renamer 6.2
Date: Fri, 04 Sep 2009 10:02:17 +0200Ok, I see. I still think that FR is having problems writing to the setting files. Try this:
Press Win+R and enter this:
%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data\RL Vision\Flash Renamer\
Delete the file setting.dat. Then start FR again. This file should be re-created and hopefully you should be able to save your settings!

Because the setup program copies the settings to the common appdata folder, the files will inherit setups admin privileges, so only a real admin (ie with UAC turned off) will be able to modify them. Vista has a solution called Virtualizing that will automatically make copies of the files to a VistualStore folder (typically %userprofile%\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\RL Vision\Flash Renamer\). This means that all users will have unique settings. If you don't like this, you can change the read/write privileges on the original files (typically stored in C:\ProgramData\RL Vision\Flash Renamer\) and give standard users write privileges.

(here’s an example I work with- I find … _left, and replace.. with _003.) is it just a setting or is it my computer?
