My computer has Windows Vista original. I am trying to open Freehand which is
also original but I don't manage to do it. It's as if it wasn't there. I
installed again a few days ago but still not working. Could someone help
please??:confused;

FreeHand works here, just installed it into new computer with Vista. In
fact the old bug which caused line spacing to change in WinXp and in
Win2000 has disappeared.

PS Otherwise using Vista is just painful, I do not need operating system
to ask me if I have wiped my nose.

What do you mean by 'not there'?

The program folder does not exist? Th icon does not appear in th start
menu? fh files are not associated as FreeHand files?

User Account Control (UAC) is a real pain in the butt and making older
programs to work without Vista nagging all the time. Anyway, check that
you have administrator rights when you install FreeHand.

I have installed download version of FreeHand without problems, other than
too big panels and non-working KDS color management. ;-)
