Spring Lobby issues "Couldn't create folder..." etc.

[Tsukihime]

I have been using Spring Downloader all this time, but I would like to know how to get Spring Lobby to work. I have downloaded it and installed it, but every time I try to get into the game it first gives me and error that says this: "Couldn't create folder. Be sure there isn't a write protection. Log function is disabled until restart SpringLobby."
There's no firewalls or anything stopping it like that, and I really don't know what's going on with it. After I click "OK" to get rid of that small window, the program comes up but I can't do anything with it. At all.[quote][/quote]

What's SL version? What's your OS? Where is SL installed?

My OS is Windows Vista.
Spring Lobby was downloaded into Drive C, where everything else goes o_O
And I think it's version 0.85. That's what it says on the bottom of the window anyway.
I just tried uninstalling and reinstalling it. Still the same error.

if it can not create a folder, that indicates a file-system issue, not a network issue. so you could try installing/running as admin, or install somewhere else.

This is bad report. If you've installed into "Program Files" then you failed. Try another location.

that is unitsync again picking the wrong read-write dir ... ( sl has proper manifest so it cannot write in program files and won't get virtualized either )
as suggested above, install somewhere other than program files, hopefully next version's unitsync will be less stupid
