Urgent Help

[gaiusmarius8]

I need your help urgently, Im trying to unlock Berbers, Roxo, and Celts on BI. I did edit the describ_strat.txt file but when saving, it claims that "Cannot create the "file", check if your path name is correct... WTF? What does that mean?

Do you have vista? I had to take user control off in the control pannel.

Hullo gaiusmarius8
Might I ask whether you are using Windows Vista (any version).

What you are experiencing is the Vista security feature - User Account Control (UAC). It is designed to stop hackers/viruses editing the Program Files area, but, in the process of doing this, it prevents any user from doing so either.

To turn the feature off, first navigate to the start menu. In the "Start Search" box, type "Control Panel".

The next steps depend upon whether you have the classic view, or the modern view enabled.

Should you be utilising the classic view, simply select "User Accounts" from the menu.

Should you be using the modern view, select "User Accounts and Family Safety". From there, click on "User Accounts".

Once you are into the area, select "Turn User Account Control On or Off".

You will then be asked for permission to continue. Either enter the correct administrator password, or simply click continue to move onwards.

From there, it is nice and easy. Quite simply de-check the check-box on the screen, and click "Ok".

After that, restart your computer, and try editing the file again. With UAC turned off, you should be able to save the file as easily as you could in Windows XP.

Once you've completed the edit, it is advised that you turn User Account Control back on. This should allow a higher level of security for your system and ensure that you are less vulnerable to certain threats.

Good luck
