Once again MicroHard rears its ugly head. Damn I hate that outfit. I found that my data was not being saved even though I faithfully select "Yes" save all when prompted. This apparently has been going on for a few weeks. I found at least a temporary reason, though I found the same thing once or twice before.
Some Basics here: SK 98 with all patches (Thanks again James33.) Windows 7 Pro, all updates (probaby something in the updates is causing this), Toshiba new laptop with all kinds of disc and power bells and whistles. Norton and other spyware programs...computer is clean.
[highlight #FCE94F]Now the Find! My "Userdata" file was again attributed with "Read Only"[/highlight]. Therefore, even though SK was trying to "Save Changes" as I instructed on closing, the changes were not saved in that "Read Only" enviornment. I have no idea how that Read Only attribute is applied to the User Data file. However, I now recall finding that change once before (in this W 7 pro enviornment.) Never in my 16 years of SK 98, etc., with WXP Pro. I can only assume that it is yet anothere wonderful service provided by MicoHard W 7 Pro. Thank you very large Mr. Gates, et.al.
In another thread I read that James 33 favors a program that backs up data as you go. I would appreciate a download link to get that program.
I have little faith that the attributes in my "User Data" file will remain unchecked for "Read Only." For the good of the order, you might want to right click on Userdata, select Properties, and see if the box for Read Only is filled in. On mine, it was solid green (selected for Read Only.) You have to have administrator priviledge to change those attributes.
Sheeshhhhhh! LOL
