Elimiano,
   I would highly recommend removing your Trnsys installation from the 
Program Files directory. With Windows 7 and Vista, the operating system 
is very strange about whether it allows read/write privileges and 
whether it shows you any files. It tries to keep a lot hidden so that 
you don't accidentally delete things. If you install Trnsys16 (or 17) in 
a different directory (I have mine in c:\PF\Trnsys16_1\) these strange 
problems will go away.
Best,
  David
