I am trying to add a repaint to my Airbus A321. I have added the texture, but when I go to add the description and stuff to the aircraft.cfg file... It keeps saying access denied when I try to save it. What am I doing wrong/not doing/missing/etc.?  :-[

It's a Windows 7 problem.

Copy the Cfg. file and place it on your desktop. Make your changes to the copy and save it. Then place it back in your aircraft folder and overwrite when asked.
