NOTE: If using the stand-alone single user default installation of
Addressinator! with Vista be aware that if Vista's UAC (user access
control) is turned on, you will end up with a "virtual" copy of the
Addressinator! database
For example:
| • | let's say that you have a Vista computer, you have installed Addressinator! to it taking the defaults which installs the Addressinator! program and database file to C:\Program Files\Ground Zero Tech-Works Inc\Addressinator |
| • | when you log into your Vista computer, Vista actually creates a "virtual" copy of the Addressinator! database from the C:\Program Files\Ground Zero Tech-Works Inc\Addressinator folder into Computer/Users/yourname/appdata/local/virtualstore/program files/ground zero tech-works inc/addressinator and all your data is actually entered into this virtual database file |
| • | make sure you are backing up the correct database file that has your actual data in it |
This does not occur if Vista users are accessing a networked
Addressinator! database, or an Addressinator! database file that is
not located in the Program Files folders
