HMT Rebuilding Problem

kevinnnnn · Post by **kevinnnnn** » Thu Aug 07, 2008 5:27 pm

Ever since I switched to Vista, I can't rebuild because I can't access C:\BuildTree.txt, even when I run as an Administrator. Is there a way to fix or get around this?

Go to whatever vistas CTRL+ALT+DEL is, and find anything that looks like buildtree or HMT under processes, and end it.

Alternatively, restart your computer.

Yeah, What DeadHamster said. Just Ctrl Alt Del, or preferably Ctrl Shift Esc. End the process HMT, or Halo Map Tools.exe. Then reopen HMT as an Administrator.

No, I mean I made myself an administrator and I don't run it as a normal user at all. And I checked the processes before I opened HMT, and it wasn't there.

HMT has to be open before you end the process.

I know, but I always ran it as an Administrator, so this doesn't fix the problem. I already tried ending the process and reopening it.

Edit: Never mind, I figured it out; I'm supposed to right click HMT and click "Run as Administrator"
