Frank, unless you run BIAB as an administrator on Windows 7 (right click on icon then run as administrator) you get file permission problems.

As the PC I run BIAB is used by others I have found the best solution is to run it in Virtual PC mode.

Running it as an administrator is a work around the problems. BIAB as it is written and distributed is a Windows XP program not a Windows 7 program.
