| Sounds like you don't have write access to where you installed it.
Try installing (or moving it) to some directory you can write to, like Documents (My Documents). |

| It was fixed with a little windows magic. Thanks for getting to me on this! I've been having some permissions issues which I can't nail down, but before that update they never messed with my (beloved, 12-years-of-use) MUSHclient.
If anyone gets this error, set the shortcut to run in Windows XP Service Pack 3 compatibility mode.
If it's pinned to the taskbar, you'll need to shift-rightclick with the application CLOSED to get to the properties menu, where you can set this. Compatibility mode information is not preserved when you pin a shortcut to this taskbar. Just FYI. | | Top |

| Hello. I am trying to Install 4.84 on a Windows 98 system but I receive the following error message:-
Can't open global preferences database at C:\My Documents\MUSHclient\mushclient_prefs.sqlite
(Error was "disk I/O error")
Check you have write-access to that file.
I have tried installing the program in different folders including the default "Program Files" folder and, as you can see, "My Documents" folder, all with the same result. Obviously I have write-access to the "My Documents" folder.
Thanks for your help.

| Not sure, try the Desktop.
Windows 98 is pretty old now. But in the past there would have been thousands of people who used MUSHclient under it. |

14 years is absolutely ancient for an OS. |

Does that file exist? What are its permissions? |

| Yes, the file does exist.
It is not read-only, not hidden, but is an archive. I tried removing archive, but the same result.

| | Don't know, sorry. You could try an earlier version of MUSHclient, but I've been using the same compiler for years. |

| I downloaded 3.84 from this website - and it works!
:-)
I want to play Aardwolf, and it loads and plays, but I wonder if there is a version of MUSHclient that includes the extra stuff customized for Aardwolf like the windows for the map, chat & health? Thanks.

| I strongly doubt that such an old version would, because that predates miniwindows.
Miniwindows first appeared in version 4.34 and there would have been some bug fixes after that. |

| | The Aardwolf package won't work properly in Windows 98 anyway because it uses features from LuaJIT and I can't compile that for anything before XP. Blame Microsoft for arbitrarily dropping compilation compatibility in their development products. :( |
