These 2 locations are in my File Locations, and they are both Read-Only when I look at Folder Properties

Temporary Files: C:\users\lmorelli\appdata\local\temp

Default Directory: C:\vfpdev\default





>>I received a new Windows 7 workstation and have loaded VFP9 SP2 on it. I think I finally have every FoxPro configured the way I want it, except this last nag screen I can't figure out...
>>
>>The User Account Control pops up every time I try to start VFP with the message "Do you want to allow the following program from an unknown publisher to make changes on this computer". Did Microsoft forget about VFP already? I thought that wasn't happing officially until 2015.

>>I've tried running both As Administrator and in Windows XP compatibility mode but the nag screen remains.
>>
>>Is there a way to fix this?
