Misssing Folder

[jevans]

After a re-install of PTE Version 7 on Windows 7, I appear to have lost a folder "c:\users\all users\picturestoexe\Version\6.5" in which were storded The Dom's exellent templates for shadow text. I have created a new test template to see if this would help in locating the storage location for text drop shadow templates, but then am unable to locate the test file.

Does anyone know the correct location for drop shadow templates with PTE & and Windows 7?

Hi Ken,

Thanks for the quick reply. The location on my machine is :

C:\Users\Jeff\AppData\Local\PicturesToExe\Versions\7.0

That has solved the problem. I replaced the existing apr_shadows.ini with Dom's version and his shadow templates re-appeared. If you create your own template and save it, it is stored in the apr_shadows.ini file, which is where I found my test template. This location is different to Version 6.5 which is why I lost the templates.

Incidently my C:\ drive is also solid state and just used for programs.

Thanks for your help Ken.

Regards

Ken,

Yes I have been out of circulation as far as PTE is concerned for some time. We moved house (rather traumatic) and then had a lot of work to do on the new house. So photography had to take a back seat. I am just now starting to try to do some new PTE projects and getting back into the swing of things. Nice to see that you are still around and being as helpful as always. What a good forum this is and a major support for such excellent software.

Regards
