Unless you have administrator privileges, you can not alter the contents of the Windows folder. Vista is supposed to work that way, it safeguards the operating system. Programs are not supposed to be installed in any Windows folders. Install your text editor in a C:\Program Files subfolder instead. If you like it to swap Notepad for Notepad++ in the user interface, simply replace the Notepad start menu shortcut with a Notepad++ one. Notepad++'s installer will do all this for you, except for deleting the Notepad start menu entry. Charlie42
