Installation and Activation

33

When using the Compatibility mode feature, Windows Vista 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's 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 raising the amount
of space required on your computer. It might also reduce the application's
performance and cause application conflicts.

Try these steps to turn off Windows compatibility mode:

1. Ensure that the 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's selected.

6. Click OK.

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

electronically.

Microsoft Windows Vista Folders

The release of JeppView version 3.6 incorporated a new directory structure
applicable only for users that will be using the Microsoft Windows Vista operating
system. Users with Windows XP and 2000 will not see a change. Use the following
table if you are a Windows XP or Windows 2000 user migrating to Microsoft Vista to
locate where common user files are stored.

The table assumes that JeppView is installed in the default location on the C: drive.
