File Finder jv16 PowerTools 2007

I'm using version 1.7.0.422 with Microsoft Vista.

Two problems I have are

(a) The drag and drop facility doesn't work. Am I correct in thinking this has been identified as a Vista problem?

(b) File Finder doesn't search all directories in my User Account. I am logged in as an Administrator. If I run the program from another experimental User Account on the same PC, it will find all directories on my User Account but will miss some in the experimental account. Any ideas?

Hi Folks

I solved my second problem by unticking all the options in the File Finder Module.

Any advice on the drag and drop feature would be welcome.

Vista would not permit drag and drop of desktop items into jv16pt.exe or explorer.exe windows (for example) until I turned off User Access Control.

You can turn it off in the User Accounts Control Panel applet.
