Install it somewhere else. Like My Documents.

I generally install outside of Program Files. MUSHclient is a bit old and the limitations on Program Files in more recent Windows versions give it trouble. (At least it used to; don't know if Nick ever fixed those.)

I am using MUSHclient version 4.73 and it is downloaded into my Program Files folder by default. This happened first when I tried to access it as an external hard drive, however, even after unplugging that and downloading MUSHclient again, it still does it.

My computer once beat me at chess, but it was no match for me at kickboxing.

Each time I open MUSHclient or close any window within it (aliases, triggers, settings) it opens up a list of errors about trying to write to a read-only database, like so:


SQL error on statement:
"UPDATE control SET value = '100' WHERE name = 'trigger list Col 0 Width'"
attempt to write a readonly database
SQL error on statement:
"UPDATE control SET value = '0' WHERE name = 'trigger list Col 0 Order'"
attempt to write a readonly database
SQL error on statement:
"UPDATE control SET value = '40' WHERE name = 'trigger list Col 1 Width'"
attempt to write a readonly database

The title of this window is 'SQL errors in global preferences'. Does anybody know what is wrong here?
