New try,
i've installed now

- install da-equinox-1.40d-pro.exe with 21.400.723 bytes
- inst-path: C:\Program Files (x86)\DigAtmEquinox
- mode: complete install
- start file digatmos.exe as administrator after install
- push Data Retrieval
- uncheck all
- check Metar from COD or something else
- push Retrieve

Now, the same error, the file data.usr was not saved or created.

Roland,

Tim has done some work to try to make DA more compatible with Vista out of the box. Please look for the announcement I will make in the next few days about a new patch, because it may solve this problem.

I located the extra slash in the filename which was hardcoded in a block of code in the import routine and fixed it. The change will become effective from V1.51 onward.
