Imo, you should not promote this.
If this is related to the extra warnings we have on execution setup's and so..

I might be wrong..

About 3/4 of the MS people I've met and talked too have turned that feature off. So have I. It is just too annoying, specially when you're testing lots of programs and other files. So it's up to each user wether they want to turn it off or now. And how experienced the user is I guess

I am currently analyzing what changes need to be done on the PB package to
fully comply to the new vista stuff like UAC.
The goal is for PB to work without any special access rights or the
virtualisation feature with the 4.1 release.

You need to give your user, even the Administrator full access to the purebasic directory

I'm pleased with your effort, don't get me wrong.

But since i can ciompile fine from my tool, i hope the PB-IDE get's fixed and not have to set anything special to my installation.
Of course, while this problem is in i can imagne but not at the long run.

@SFSxOI:
If so, why does it works most time without any problem but only sometimes showing a prob?

What I have found out about Windows Vista is that they made everything work 10 times slower, I guess it's a slow motion feature or something. And also that my hard drive now got ADHD and that it's difficult to make an application look the same in Vista and XP. I wouldn't recommend Vista unless you got 5gz and 4gb ram, and the only cool thing about it is the looks.

Like you said before: 'Vista is good looking crap'.

Actually work has started by Microsoft looking at the potential of an OS coded in C#. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singularit ... _system%29

I do agree however Vista sucks major ass!

I don't mind Vista. it's causing people to give Linux and Mac's a chance

IMHO a fixed and little improved XP would have been much better than Vista's actual design and priorities.
