cannot read file error mission editor

[Pisces]

Oops, forgot about it.

You probably installed dangerous waters somewhere in thedefault location in the Program Files folder. The mission editor wants to save a file into the Scenario folder inside the DW-folder. But Vista is very paranoid about programs modifying files in the Program Files folder structure. If you installed the game outside of the Program Files folder (so not default location) then Vista wouldn't care (so much).

But iirc there was some requirement with Steam installations of DW that want it at the default location. Atleast, that's what I read somewhere, not 100% sure. Perhaps it is possible to reinstall somewhere else. If that is your case (Steam downloaded installation) then you would need to run the game or just the mission editor with Administrator Priveleges. Though the UAC (user account control) interface poping up might still cause problems. Better ask Steam or Sonallysts for more support if you can't solve it.
