Hello

Has anyone had any luck installing Band-in-a-Box 2010 (or previous versions) on a Windows 7 Professional box in the Program Files directory?

On my system, if I install Band-in-a-Box in Program Files I run into all kinds of permission problems when trying to write to the C:\Program Files\bb directory. This doesn't happen if Band-in-a-Box is installed in the root (C:\) directory.

Why not just install Band-in-a-Box in C:\bb you might ask? Because we have file systems and directory hierarchies for a reason and if any program can install itself where ever it wants to, it defeats the order of a file system. I would like to see Band-in-a-Box a little bit better behaved.

I didn't have this problem in Windows XP and I haven't seen any other programs experiencing similar problems. I know that it has to do with Windows 7 "improved" permissions and security schemes.

I am just wondering what other users' experiences have been like.

Thanks.
