Re: Windows7 Euphoria3 opening files problem

I put UAC down one level, with possibly a small change. What I have found is that when I save a file from Notepad, it says Access Denied, but if I save again, it saves. It looks like the first save copies the file to a backup, then the write truncates the file but can't write to it. The NEXT save finds a null file, so it can write to it. Now this is surmising, and it seems very odd, but I have found a similar case with our NAS when writing from a Mac. The Mac creates a unique filename, which is null, then (seems to write to it) but can't rename it to the proper name. The NAS - and the Mac, with OSX - is based around Unix, as it appears Win7 is. It is all very odd. I'm looking at Microsoft docs for progammer's guide to Win7 but that is largely irrelevant.
Bring back DOS - all is forgiven!
