Can't save?

Well ive had this problem for a while and never tryed to sort it out.

I moved my ET folder from my computer to my new computer and now when i try to edit one of my files in etmain/etpro and so on. It wont let me edit that file such as my cfg. for example I want to add a bind in what it comes out with is:

is there any way except from editing it on my desktop then replaces it in my ET folder?

EDIT: Also my screenshots, demos etc dont seem to be in any of my ETPRO folders, ETMAIN folders i make demos and there no where to be found.

any suggestion on this?

the foldername of the folder where et is located in has unknown or non basiccharacters ?
maybe folder is set to read only or smth, sometimes that happens to me when I copy shit from a cd.

i take it thats vista

try running notepad as administrator

edit: or take ownership of the file (vista doesnt assign ownership to users in the program files directory automatically, its protected)

To take full ownership:
1. Right click file, select properties.
2. Hit security tab, select advanced
3. Click owner tab, the hit edit (accept the UAC pop-up box)
4. Select your username, click OK, accept the pop up box, then OK out of all dialogue boxes
cheers m8 let me see if it works. btw how do i run notepad as admin?
Parent
right-click on it -> "run as administrator"
Parent
nope not there :S
Parent
he means right click on the notepad.exe not the cfg file.. then file > open etc.
Parent
eeehm yep :)
Parent
i said that as an XP-user. just tried :)
maybe in right-click->properties->run as admin ??
Parent
read only ?
had that when I tried vista. Had to move file, edit it on desktop then move it back.

But I ditched vista after few days so I guess its a permission thing.
check if the location of the folder equal the adress that the warning says?
yes its correct look my edit also.
Parent
maybe u have 2 et folders? check program files
Parent
no i havent i just searhced under : Search but only 1. btw i got vista musthave something to do with it.
