I am trying to transfer over some modifications I made to the game on my previous computer, which ran WindowsXP, to this one, which is running Windows 7 on a 64 bit platform. The necessary modifications require me to have write permissions for one of the original files. Given this information, should I direct my question of how to get write permissions (which do not stay given) towards FAQs, Bugs, or Tech Support?

Do you still need permissions if you install in another then the default one ?
Write permissions usually refer to being the administrator. So start up with the admin account.
Did you try the compability mode ?

So as long as you don't install in C:\Programme (Program Files) it should work, as far as i know.

Very helpful: Advanced Search function (upper right hand corner)

go to single search, put in keyword and take the forum you want to look in -> tada!

Helped me a lot.

I uninstalled the game, which was in C:\Program Files(x86)\Paradox Entertainment\Crusader kings, then I reinstalled the game to C:\Games\PdoxGames\Paradox Entertainment\Crusader Kings. Hope that helps!
