Vista (Ultimate) question.

I agree. The more I hear about it the more I want to stay away from it but know I will have to someday.
Does this pop up everytime you open the program?
I'll do some research on Microsoft Technet and see if there is a way to make it go away.

Here is what I have found on this issue. Apparently Microsoft and Windows Vista have determined that it is bad to store data in the program directory so they have created something called “Virtual Store”. When Hoster is installed in the C:\Program Files\Hoster directory, Vista calculates what it considers to be data and moves it to C:\Users\User_name\AppData\Local\VirtualStore folder. So in effect none of the KMA files or songbook data is actually in the Hoster sub directories. It is in the virtual store directory with “Compatibility Files” tab creating a link to it.
Additionally I see this as a problem if there are more than one user account as the Virtual Store directory is proprietary to the user account.

Good find Musicgeek! Maybe MTU needs to consider this and move those folders to another location or ask for a location from the installer.
