    Upgraded to windows 8.1 from 7 and now DS won’t start because of error “can’t write to preferences file”. Solution??

    Hi Gregg:
    No sir, no third party AV. Thanks for getting back to me so quickly, btw.

    OK. Figured it out. Permissions had changed upon upgrading to Win8. Took ownership of program data and desktop server folder and all is well again. Guess this one is solved.
    Thanks JP
