-=PCTechTalk=- Re: WinRAR

Don,

Are the files you are opening somewhere different than in your documents
area?  Win7 can be pretty finicky about where files are.  I know Win7 gives
you problems creating a .txt file in C:\  (yes, the root of the C: drive)
unless you are the Super Admin (that is the first Administrator account, not
just any Administrator account).

Why has UAC suddenly started alerting me every time I try to open/extract a
ZIP or RAR file.  Since the last time it worked without the alert I have
done nothing but move some files and folders around and send a few emails.
 

This happened in just the last hour.  From working OK to getting UAC alerts.
WinRAR doesn't try to make changes to Windows settings or the computer..
Does it?  It never has before that I know of.
