Available from the Mac
App Store or Century
Software for only $79.
Tech Tip: Error 1297 When Saving Settings
Question: When I try to save my session on Windows 7, I get an
error like this: "Error (1297) Can't open file default.tpx." How can I save my
settings?
Answer: This happens when the Windows 7 security
settings are very high. While this protects important files, it also makes it
hard to change them. There are two ways around this:
1) Save the session
to a different location on the PC, such as My Documents or the user's desktop.
Double-clicking the resulting .tpx file will start TinyTERM with the correct
settings.
2) Lower the Windows 7 UAC setting. To do this, open the
Control Panel and select the "User Accounts" icon. Click the link labeled,
"Change User Account Control Settings." You can then adjust the slider downward.
Experiment to find the highest level that allows saving the session on your PC..
