Hi All,
Two issues:

1. I just got a new Vista PC, and I cannot save a file to the C-drive. I made sure my account has Admin priviledges and that it has Full Control on the C-drive, but still cannot save to the C-Drive.

2. Also, how can I set the PC so that when it reboots, I don't have to enter my password when it has rebooted?

Thanks !
Rob

Hi there solid71, for your first issue would you mind explaining how you can't save a file to your hard drive? Such as any error messages that come up? Also if you haven't got it installed already I would strongly recommend installing Service Pack 1 for Vista (For 32 Bit Systems) (For 64 Bit Systems), this fixes hundreds of bugs and improves performance.

For your second issue just go to Start, Click on your Personal Picture at the top, Remove Your Password, Type your password in to confirm and then that is it!

Thanks. The reboot/password issue is fixed, but I still cannot copy folders from my old PC to my new PC - something about permissions, however, I am full Admin on the new PC !!

Assuming your old PC is XP, you may want to follow the suggestions from this article: How to take ownership of a file or folder in Windows XP

Also -
My Temporary Internet Files folder is at c:\users\admin\appdata\microsoft\windows\temporary internet files, but when I go to that path, I don't see the last folder (temporary internet files) - However, I have "Show hidden files and folders" selected....
