    Windows 7 won't let me save an edited .au3 file.
    « on: July 22, 2014, 03:39:47 PM »
    I am a new Windows7 user. For many years used only XP and many things are new to me.
    My computer is a Dell Optiplex 790, 4 GB ram and 64 bit OS. OS is Windows 7 Professional SP 1

    I have been using Autoit programing for a few years with XP without any issues, but now, after switching to W7 when I try to modify a script Windows7 will not let me save and asks to save to another name. The same thing happens if I use say Notepad, but if I run Notepad as administrator then the operation is allowed.

    The problem is I can't set Scite text editor to run as administrator by default which would be the solution. I will appreciate very much any suggestions. Attached is a image of the notice.

    Thanks for your help.
