As a rule of thumb: FoxPro as a Development system must not get installed in %Program Files% ! That directory hive is only for Runtime apps, and such those files are not allowed to write into that folders (Virus Prevention). If they need to write program-specific files, those go into %Program Data%. And: that's a GOOD THING (tm)! If you insist to install under %program files%, you need to invoke all permissions on that folder. Since not all programs adhere to those principles, MS invented that VirtualStore, which is a really clever way to keep those stupid programs running and stil don't let viruses get into the secured area.
Unfortunately, FoxPro is too old for adhering to those Established Security Rules, that's why you should always install it to a different non-secured and non-supervised folder (like c:\Develop).

Rebuilding a project that includes c:\program files (x86)\microsoft visual foxpro 9\wizards\_framewk.vcx gives the error Memo file c:\program files (x86)\microsoft visual foxpro 9\wizards\_framewk.VCT is missing or invalid. But it isn't and it's not. I copied both _framewk files from another machine where it works, no change. I opened the file exclusively and tried to PACK and get the same error. I copy the two files to C:\temp and they pack fine, and compile classlib works there (after I also copied over _framewk.h) but moving the files back to the above directory and attempting a build project, rebuild all throws the same error. This is a permissions issue with the program files (x86) folder and I've tried turning off the "Read Only" settings and in the folder permissions granting Modify and Write to the Users group, but the errors continue. Any suggestions on how to get the Program files (x86) to be read-write for VFP? Moving the files to the project folder would be my preference, but it is not my project. --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html --- [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: https://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: https://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: https://leafe.com/archives This message: https://leafe.com/archives/byMID/027a01d74119$2640fca0$72c2f5e0$@wondzinski.de ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
