Well your right, its definatly not a UniServer problem. I was going to do your example to make sure it wasnt a path problem, when I got to saving the file in Notepad++ i could see the files, but I cannot see the files when going through file manager. I also noticed a 'compatibility files' button on file manager, once clicked it takes me to the folder mentioned previously. So i guess its time to read up on vistas features :/ Thanx for your quick reply
