I had to replace my HD and reload Win 7. I restored all the files in the Ebasic folder from my backup.
All the file and folder names are the same as before.
I loaded an old file *.eba that used to compile and run ok.
It looks normal in the editor screen.
When I try to recompile for a test (without making any changes) , it says
"access to myfile.eba is denied"
It appears to compile but at the end it says: " error in linking c:\program files\ebdev\myfile.exe"
This used to work with Win 7. Is there some configuration parameter that I need to set after reloading Win 7?
I'm also running Norton Internet Security.
Thanks,
Robert
Did you reinstall EBasic? There's a lot ok info stored in the registry that EB needs and if you replaced your HD all that info is gone.
Saving the contents of the dev folder and then copying it back is not enough.
Reinstall as Admin and let me know.
Thanks, Larry.
I found that turning off the User Account Control (UAC) took care of the problem.
I noticed I was getting a lot of requests for admin permission before doing almost anything.
The UAC was a nuisance anyway. (fingers crossed)

Glad you got it resolved.
