This is driving me insane. I created a beautiful flash and now trying to add files to VSD and cannot find files. So I did a global search via explorer and found the files, and it looks like they somehow were saved as a short cut??? What?? Is going on???

Please help, two days trying and counting.

Thanks.
Helpless.

I had the same exact thing happening to me. I have since abandoned Firestarter and am using a different program. The response I got here was that maybe my computer wasn't allowing me to save active content programs. I have no problems with the new program I am using. Just wanted to share with you that you were not alone with that problem. Breast cancer sucks. Chemo sucks. Save the tata's.

I can't see how that could be something created by the software. A shortcut can only be created by the user when they click on the file. Firestarter doesn't have the ability to create a shortcut. It only saves an swf file ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~

Scott, I can tell you that his description is exactly what happened to me. I could not locate my file/s and when I did the search, just like he described, it came up with the name of the file and it was a shortcut - no actual files. Breast cancer sucks. Chemo sucks. Save the tata's.

Did you try saving the fire to your desktop? Could not being log on as an administrator cause this? I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's so easy to overlook something your not looking for.

NTT are you still have trouble finding your firestarter project? I can't hear what I'm looking at.

Hiya,

Since this thread is basically the extension of another thread that is discussing NTT's issue, please respond to NTT there rather than both places. Here's the other link :)
