Temp Directory Error in Windows Vista

PDFCreator PDFCreator English
1

My Pdf Creator  V0_9_6 was working fine on Vista. Today it displayed the following message;

PrinterTemppath: 'C:\\Documents and Settings\\build\\Local Settings\\TEMP\\PDFCreator\\'= 'C:\\Documents and Settings\\build\\Local Settings\\TEMP\\PDFCreator\\'

There is a problem when trying to access this drive or directory!

The folder "Documents and settings" does not even exist in Win Vista.  Obviously the program could not generate the pdf file.  I installed the latest version (0_9_9) after uninstalling my current version but still received the same message every time I try to print to pdfCreator.  Any help????

I solved this problem myself by changing the PrinterTemppath from the registry from HKCU to C:\\users\\"Your user name"\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\PDFCreator

Now the program works fine.

I just setup total commander to be able to have a better file extension search on windows, windows explorer is just way to slow searching for files.

I little tip:

Using the path c:\\Users\\Public under Vista/Win7 no user priviliges are needed. I created a folder PDFCreator inside and set the Temp path to go there. I works everytime and under various users also.
