Not true Ed and I surely speak from experience.  Go to your WL program 
folder (C:/PROGRAMS/WRITELOG) and double click on that TV screen window 
thingy, mine is called wlini and see what happens.  It will ask you if you 
want to do this for sure and than click OK.  Now I dare you to find a WL 
.ini file in the C:/WINDOWS folder, you won't.  I did a *.ini all files and 
folders and it found NONE for WL.  When I clicked on that window thingy 
again it asked if I wanted to change from the registry back to .ini files 
and like MAGIC, they were back. Try it is all I ask.

My thingy terminology isn't very scientific but I'm no windows guru and 
don't know what else to call it.  I am surprised that no one new this and 
came to the rescue when I stated that I could find NO WL.ini files on my 
computer.

I also feel as if I started some of this trash talk when I mentioned the 
dirty word N1MM, all I meant was that if I could not get WL working again I 
would have to try something else.  Although I am not a major contester WL is 
the only contest program I have ever used and as long as I can keep WL 
running I have no need for N1MM or any other program.  I'm sorry I started 
this mess but was truly desperate at the time after hours (DAYS) of trying 
to get it to work, hell I even spent the $30 bucks to upgrade.
