Reinstalled Win7 and W:A, got some probs.
« on: February 02, 2014, 11:03 PM »
So I reinstalled Win7 a few days ago and installed W:A with latest updates and all. But if I want to run W:A it tells me:

Warning: the current directory (e:\games\WA) is not writable. W:A will not be able to create temporary files, and will not function properly.

Please modify the directory permissions to allow write access to the specified directory, or reinstall the game to a location writable by unprivileged users. You may try launching W:A as administrator user, however this is not recommended.

When I run it as Admin it says:

It looks like you ran W:A as administrator with UAC enabled.

This is not recommended. Please be aware that this may cause issues such as not being able to restore a minimized game.

I tried disabling UAC just to try it but I still can't maximize after minimize.

Any help? :)

I fixed it myself, had to set the folder to be writable by "everyone".

/locked
