Save/Save As/Export error

Post by eeeehaw »

CPEditor for Radioddity DB25D, ver 0.5.405.1

Cannot perform a Save, Save As, or Export. Error message informs "File Not Found" (I am attempting a save op, not an open op).
This happens when attempting to save anything from anywhere in the editor program.

See attached screen snip of the error message.

Work-around solution found:

After further investigation, the root cause of this problem is that the CPEditor program is either not digitally signed or else is signed with a certificate no linked to Microsoft's root certificate authority. Therefore, on the many WIndows OS systems that have protected folder security on this error message is displayed when attempting to access/modify those folders.

The owner must manually change permission in Windows OS for CPEditor to access and create new files into protected folders.

Suggestion: (1) developer signs the CPEditor with a Microsoft-issued digital certificate, or (2) warns user upon checking for protected folder security during install that the user should authorize change in the program's access permission for protected folders

Cheers, Stephen
