3.7 Notes on Vista and Windows 7 Directory
Protections
3.7.1 User Data File Paths
Windows™ Vista and Windows 7 institute a policy which prevents user data from being
written into the
Program Files
directory/folder. It was common for applications written for
Windows XP (and earlier) to use the
Program Files
folder to store user data. LeCroy and
CATC products used this folder as a default folder for storing trace files, user option files
(
default.opt, default.rec
), scripts, and so on. The default folder for USB Protocol Suite
was:
x:\Program Files\Lecroy\USB Protocol Suite\…
Windows Vista and Windows 7 make such paths illegal directories for user data. For
Windows Vista and Windows 7, files that are accessible by different user accounts must
be in the path
x:\Users\Public\…
To preserve the ability of multiple user accounts to access all the LeCroy files that were
accessible in Windows XP when using Windows Vista and Windows 7, files that were in
the
Program Files
path in Windows XP are now in:
x:\Users\Public\Documents\Lecroy\USB Protocol Suite\…
In some cases, such as paths stored in the Recording Options
.rec
file, the application
silently changes this path, so that the Windows Vista and Windows 7 operating systems
will accept it as valid.
USB Protocol Suite on Windows XP still uses the
Program Files
directory. However, if a
Recording Options file that was created on a Windows 7 system is used on a
Windows XP system, trace files will be probably be recorded to a new Windows XP
directory called
x:\Users\Public\Documents\Lecroy\USB Protocol Suite\…
This is a legitimate path on a Windows XP system, so there are no conflicts with the
operating system.
