I launched VarAC as administrator and am able to save canned messages and appearance but not rig control. CAT rig control of my Elecraft K2 works while in the setup window, but when clicking on save & exit a message pops up stating: "VarAC does not have Write permissions to the incoming file directory".
I can close the window but my configuration is not saved.
Glad it's working. I don't think you ever have to Connect to Modem unless you've Disconnected from Modem. The Connect to Modem button starts VARA if it's not already running... VarAC starts VARA on startup.
Thank you for the quick replies. I am using v3.6.6 and got the PTT & Frequency controls to save & Exit with out error. The success had to do with the sequence
of configuration.
After reinstalling v3.6.6 I entered my call sign, went to settings, configured the rig control & VARA configs, canned messages, saved & exited. Then clicked on CONNECT MODEM.
The failure I had previously experienced was connecting to the modem right after entering my call sign, then going to settings to configure the rig ctrl & VARA configs.
Hope this seems clear, but all is good now.
The messages says what it is :)
"VarAC does not have Write permissions to the incoming file directory".
Try setting to the VarAC home directory to start with.
Are you sure you're actually running v3.6.6? This version was released to fix write permission problems. I had the same issue, but upgrading to 3.6.6 solved the issue for me and others. I have successfully changed settings, including Incoming and Outgoing folders The current version is displayed in the top left corner of the VarAC window.
