the Print Shop Deluxe missing files in Windows Vista
« on: May 14, 2007, 07:01 AM »
Good Day! I bought a new laptop with Windows Vista. In the old computer with Windows XP, in my Print shop 20 (Broderbund software)program I  made more than hundred projects. Problem: when I move them to the new computer I can not review the projects in the Print Shop program. ( I move them from here-to-there with the 'Windows-Verkenner' I don't know the word in english -sorry).
I know were the 'projects' are in the old computer, I mean the map. Earlier I used cut-'n-paste to move them out en in, when necessary.
When I cut them in the old computer (Windows XP) and drop them in the new one (Vista) the program shows me not a single project,even after re-starting the computer and so on.
I seems to me that the Printshop 'doesn't recognise' or somethin like that, those projects.
And I'm sure that I put them in the right map in Vista. (if I make new projects, I can see where they were created and dropped in Vista).
ONLY ONE time I succeeded in viewing y projects on the new computer > I cut-'n-paste the whole map 'projects' in stead of all separate things.
BUT when I re-started.... everyting was gone. :(
I hope that somebody has an idea how to handle.
(I've been working on the projects for a few years...)
Greetings, Pitr Paulus.

Good day! That has everything to do with .. the Administrator -rights. Normally in XP is seems that everybody has those rights, but thats not in Windows Vista.
For some (older) programs you have to right click on the program and check if all users have Access to the program.
I looked there and saw that there were no rights -than one can only VIEW the program and not add or change something.
Now everything is OK, with the rights.
This will also work with (many) other (bit older) programs.
Greetings, Pitr Paulus (himself ;)

Hello lanux128, Thanks for the Vista suggestions page. I'm gonna have a look at it and I'm sure I can learn a lot. Great.
Maybe, when I've question about something there I'll contact you again.
Bye, Pitr Paulus.

Waauw! That's really a nice program! Thanks LANUX128, and also thank you that you've been thinking of me. Really great is such a 'cruel' world! :Thmbsup:
The program works fine and I don't get any UAC-questions if I really want to open my own installed programs.
Thanks again and bye-bye.
Pitr Paulus from the Netherlands.  :)
