<P>I have been using TRNSYS <SPAN class=987361311-01112007>16.1 </SPAN>on
Vista for several weeks now and everything works fine. In addition to what David
wrote, it is helpful to start the TRNExe.exe as Administrator. You can choose to
always run TRNSYS as administrator: Right-click the exe in the "Program Files"
directory and in "Properties" select something like "Always run as
administrator" (I am not quite sure about it, my Vista is in german and right
now I am sitting at Win XP). The same would be useful with the Studio. The
explanation is, that in Vista writing access to the standard "Programm Files"
directory is only permitted for the Administrator. You either can log in as
administrator (dangerous!) or start certain programmes with administrator rights
(the same as "sudo" in Ubuntu for example).</P>

<DIV></DIV>Aude,<BR> I am glad for Werner's "official" reply. We have been
using TRNSYS 16.01.0000 through 16.01.0003 on Windows Vista a little bit and
have not run into any significant problems with it. We did encounter some
problems installing TRNSYS on Vista due to read/write permissions that are set
on various Windows directories. Our solution was just to run TRNSYS from an
administrator account.<BR>Kind regards,<BR> David<BR><BR><BR>At 08:37
