There is no connection on Visible and Locked files on Windows systems.
If setting the file to invisible locks the file then it is a bug.

for how Win32 "works").
I certainly think Win32 locks invisible files for whatever reason,
simply because this OS always feels free to modify behaviours based on
facts that have nothing to do with. In other words, I'm not surprised
that setting a file to invisible locks it under Win32.
But, I could be wrong for that case, indeed. I'll check that.

I found out the bug, perhaps not a bug, but I would like to call it
like that.
f.visible = false
Makes the file write protected under windows. By removing that line,
everything works.
I consider this a bug.

Try creating an intermediate TextOutputStream object:
Dim o As TextOutputStream
...
o = f.CreateTextFile()
o.Write(strPreferences)
and see if 'o' is nil. Also, try making the file invisible AFTER you
create it and see what happens.

This works fine on Macintosh, but crashes as a nilobject on
Windows. I have no explanation, here is the code
#if TargetMachO then
f = PreferencesFolder.Child("studlar")
#elseif TargetWin32 then
f = PreferencesFolder.Child("studlar")
#endif
f.Visible = false
if f.Exists then
f.CreateTextFile().Write(strPreferences) <---- crashes here
end if
No variable is nil, that is so weird.
