Hi

when i'm working with Xml copy editor as limited user account xml copy
editor faills to save settings and show message box. So i think it tries to
save them in c:\program files\xml copy editor dir

Thanks Siarhei, I need to check this. On my computer settings are stored in
the home directory (which while probably not ideal is a lot better than
C:\Program Files\XML Copy Editor\, as you suggest).

On XP in the en-uk locale, for example. .xmlcopyeditor is stored in:

C:\Documents and Settings\[login]\.xmlcopyeditor

I'm not sure how the configuration files came to be stored in C:\Program
Files on your computer.

Best,
Gerald
