Applies to:

PcVue 11, PcVue 11.1 and PcVue 11.2


Summary:

Unexpected behavior during the PcVue installation process.
Originator: JM


Details:

Most of files are created in the user temporary folder, when nothing else is specified.

Some others are created in the “C:\Windows\Temp” folder. Such files are named with their full path.

The user temporary folder is, more exactly, located on

  • C:\Users\<Installer user>\AppData\Local\Temp\ on most recent OS
  • C:\Documents and Settings\<Installer user>\Local Settings\Temp on oldest OS

You can access by typing %Temp% into Run window, only when the installer user is the logged user (when he has Administrator rights)

Warning: AppData is a hidden folder, so you need to allow display of hidden items.

A trick to find the log files more easily:

  • Use Details view for the user temporary directory
  • Sort the display according to the ‘Data modified’ column, so that more recently created files be displaying first.
