249 forum posts 40 photos | Hey Les, That issue has been bugging me too, Windows Vista, I think its similar to Windows 7. Do you have to copy an entire directory or just a few files ? If you do this sort of thing with any program do you have to somehow tell the computer to look in the new directory or does it simply just find the files wherever they are ? I dont know much about computers Bill |

2292 forum posts 159 photos | Hi Bill, Hercus Model A - Imperial Thread.lat I just copied them into a directory I created under a directory where I keep stuff relating to my lathe. (A Chester DB-10G) I then just double clicked on "LatheGears.exe" (The one in the directory I created as the link from the desktop would have gone to the one in Program Files(x86) This then worked OK and let me save the setting I had entered. C:\My_Files\DB-10G_Lathe\Screwcutting_calc\LGV1 I put most things below My_Files (A directory I created directly on the C: drive.) For Backing up I just copy the "My_Files" directory to another disk drive. I hope this works for you using Vista. Les. Edited By Les Jones 1 on 11/09/2016 14:39:29 |
