"Can't open preferences file for writing" error
Just recently I've been getting this error in AC3D upon close. I can't remember any change I've made, especially to the preferences that could trigger this... In fact, I uninstalled and upgraded AC3d in hopes it would make the error go away, but to no avail. I run Windows Vista home basic, Nvidia 8600, 2 gb ram. AC3D is run in compatibility mode for XP, and as administrator. |

The file must be locked in some way. Use Windows Explorer to look at it and try to delete/rename it. If that doesn't fix it, a reboot should.
