Problem modding

[Eldar]

I tried and succed to do a bit of modding in EU3 with my last computer, but now, with my new vista runned computer, I can't do anything! Everything is "read only" and I can't save new files to mod etc...
Can someone help me?

Install outside of Program Files (such as under C:\Games). ProgFiles, Windows etc. are protected.

Erm... Can't you just check out "Read Only" in file "Properties"?

Not unless you either fully disable UAC, mess with the folder rights, or use FAT32. If he is hitting the most likely Vista issue that is, where no application (or user) has rights to write into ProgFiles unless the process is UAC elevated.
