JDS Posted January 12, 2012 Author Report Posted January 12, 2012 aye, where it should be in C://programfiles <_< however all the stuff i want is in some local app data/ vitual store / program files / which you cant find normaly without the fancy run command ._. JDS here, sup!
★ Maverick Posted January 12, 2012 Report Posted January 12, 2012 You don't necessarily have to do Winkey + R, you can also use the search text input in the start menu.There is no way to make this folder more accessible apart from making a shortcut to this folder somewhere. It might be possible to install Continuum in a different folder so all files are stored there instead in Program Files. I'm not sure though, Continuum might just store map files in the Virtual Store anyway. Check out your zone population statistics at stats.sshq.net!

JoWie Posted January 12, 2012 Report Posted January 12, 2012 This behavior does not happen if you install continuum to your "Documents" folder for example. Microsoft wants to force developers to use the Application Data folder instead of Program Files. The VirtualStore is a compatibility workaround for old applications.
JDS Posted January 13, 2012 Author Report Posted January 13, 2012 oh good tip, damn you microsoft for b eing so sneaky *reinstals somewhere more feasable* <3 you guys JDS here, sup!
Marioman Posted March 9, 2012 Report Posted March 9, 2012 If you run it as administrator it doesn't do the virtual store thing i believe. a.k.a Weasal (dsb)
