Windows 8

Post by synpse »

So, the C drive on my Windows 8 laptop is "shared", which kicks up an error starting POS Pizza. "cannot run from a shared folder"

I'm sure this is meant to keep things secure, but it's quite annoying. Any way to disable this safeguard?

The is presently no way to disable that. It was primarily put in place to prevent upgrade problems from v5 which had to be shared.
