The problem seems to be although the user has write permission to this folder, Demeter doesn't try to create Its own folder (does this happen during a standard install for the installer?) so it seems when in startup it finds there is no %APPDATA%/Demeter folder to put the log in it gives up. Hence by first creating a Demeter folder in %APPDATA% folder, the program runs happily. Thanks for the help in figuring it out.
Excellent. I am happy you got it sorted out. I could have sworn that I had noticed and solved that problem at some point in the past. I'll put it on the to do list. Thanks for sticking through to the end. This kind of feedback is extremely helpful to me.
