network administrator for administrative permission.

Microsoft Windows Vista Compatibility Mode

If you are currently using a version of FliteDeck that is not Vista aware (version 3.3

or lower) on a Windows Vista machine with the compatibility mode feature, we
recommend that you turn off the compatibility mode and update the application with
the Vista aware Electronic Chart Data (ECD) Discs or electronically through the

Internet.

The Windows Vista Compatibility mode feature redirects some files and folders to
other areas of your computer. For instance, if you are a standard user and cannot
write to the C:\Program Files folder, it will redirect the files and place it in the
C:\Users\[User Profile]

folder. Windows Vista gives the application its own

private copy of the file in the user profile, so the application will function properly.
When files are moved randomly, the Vista-aware Jeppesen applications might not be

able to find the files needed or place additional files on your computer, increasing the
amount of space required on your computer. It might also reduce application
performance and cause application conflicts.

.

Try these steps to turn Windows compatibility mode off:

1. Ensure that all Jeppesen applications are closed.

2. Right-click the Jeppesen application icon on your desktop.

3. From the shortcut menu, click Properties.

4. Click the Compatibility tab.

5. Clear the Compatibility mode check box if it is selected.

6. Click OK.

7. Insert the Vista aware Electronic Chart Data CDs or update the application

electronically.
