Access denied when editing .ini files
All of a sudden when I'm trying to save an edited .ini file in a program folder (in C:\Program Files) I get blocked by an Access Denied message. First, on making the changes in the .ini using Notepad and then clicking File > Save, I get the "Save As" dialog instead. But even then when I click Save it will say I don't have permission to save in this location and to contact an administrator (which is me).
I have edited these same files in these same locations dozens of times without a problem before. This is something new that starting just this morning. System restore didn't help.
Anyone have any experience with this sort of thing?
