Vista support has to be the lowest feature request priority EVER.


Thanks for testing it, tho. I'll wait till eMule supports vista, first.

emule runs in vista. You need to change your file rights to your download folder or you download will go to the virtual store.

I have found a walk around for the error.

1.Crate a new user.
2.Login to new user.
3.Run amule. You will get the first time run message, do not click ok!
4.Move your temp folder to C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\aMule\
5.Click ok. Your downloads will be found be amule.


Why are you useing C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\? Is vista forcing me to use it? Or are you intentionally useing it?
