A friend of mine said this about Vista "I understand, without confirmation yet, that Vista is intercepting calls to the Windows API for INI files. I would like to do INI (config) files as I want to not as Vista is doing. So I am looking for a self made INI file replacement that does not use Windows API stuff. My goal is simply to manage INI files as I expect them to behave, so I can avoid unexpected consequences of Vista. At present I am using Delphi's built in TINIfile, which I am guessing calls Windows API code."
I think in my brief tests of Vista there were issues writing to settings files including .ini files but I thought it was to do with fil permissions - that is once I allowed full access to the folder where the ini files were then all seemed to behave. Anyone have more information on if and how Vista changes access to ini files? Does D2007 contain changes to Tinifile to cater for this? Any issues for earlier versions? I am guessing if Vista has changed the rules is maybe similar to how it restricts access to certain parts of the registry hives...
