Hello,
I have a program that doubles as a screensaver. In order for it to work as a screensaver it must be installed in the 'Program Files' folder. Unfortunately, Windows7 64bit (Professional Edition) wants to put it in 'Program Files (x86)' folder. When I try to select it as the screensaver I get a 'Cannot find file' error.
When I run the program as a standalone, it runs fine.
It is an older 32bit program written for Windows XP. No option for where to install the program comes up during installation.
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling using 'Run as Administrator' and Compatibility modes. It installs and runs exactly the same.
Does anybody know how I might direct Windows to install it to the 'Program Files' folder, or direct the screensaver program to find it in the 'Program Files (x86)' folder?
Thank you.
