| Summary | 0001715: "Unable to save to C:...speedfanparams.cfg" | ||||
| Description | I just re-installed my OS (Win 7 64bit) on an SSD as a dual-boot system. My programs are on the SSD & user data is on a typical HD. I modified the registry entries to save default user files (music, downloads, documents, etc.) to this HD. After installing Speedfan 4.42 I get: "Unable to save to C:\Program Files (x86)\Speedfan\speedfanparams.cfg When I check this location there is no .cfg file. "Show hidden files" is enabled. I also looked for a Speedfan install location in Users\Apps but see no folder or entry. I also checked outstanding issues and see similar ones posted, but none seem to be resolved. I suspect this has something to do with my dual-boot system and that a registry entry or something technical is involved. Any leads very much appreciated. I am a silence enthusiast and Speedfan is of high priority. Thanks so much | ||||

You might change permissions for that directory. |

Success! For some reason the boot drive SSD install and the creation of a pseudo-user while installing W7 resulted in the folder having limited permissions. It seems to be writing now and the .cfg file was created. Thx. |
