[RTTY] WRITELOG.INI IN WINDOWS 8.1?

[Gary AL9A]

If you are running Win8 with User Account Control (UAC) enabled most likely 
it is in what is called the Virtual Store path.  Have you previously run 
Win7 or Vista?  If so you are probably familiar with the Virtual Store.  If 
migrating from Win XP, it is a totally different animal.  Basically UAC will 
not allow any software to make changes to program folders installed in 
C:\Program Files, but instead redirects such changes to a shadow folder 
maintained in the Virtual Store.

You can find the Virtual Store in a path name similar to the following:

C:\Users\AL9A\AppData\Local\VirtualStore

Of course your path name will be slightly different.  Also, the AppData 
folder is a hidden file so all that follows it is also hidden unless you go 
into the Control Panel and allow hidden files to be shown.  I don't have 
Win8, but in Vista the location to make hidden folders visible is Control 
Panel/Appearance and Personalization/Folder Options.  Once you can see 
hidden folders look in ...Virtual Store\Windows.  Your writelog.ini file is 
probably in that location.
