  • @FaroeFigther

    It's fine for it to look different, as long as you add those lines of code to it.

  • Will the contents of that url work for adobe premiere elements 9?

  • @joeweedon

    Yes, it will work.

  • Figured it out.

    If it says that it cannot create C:windows/system32/etc

    Then right click notepad and put "run as administrator"

    Problem solved. Thumb up so others can see this.
