| − | Yes, DOSBox works in both Vista 32 bit and Vista 64 bit, but depending on your local setup you might need to pay attention to certain things | + | Yes, DOSBox works in both Vista 32 bit and Vista 64 bit. DOSBox also works on Windows 7 32bit and 64bit. |

| − | === Configuration file ===
| |
| − | If you are running in Vista as non-administrator you must take care with editing the configuration file.
| |
| − | For now you can right-click on the shortcut used to edit the configuration file,
| |
| − | and select to run as an Administrator. | |
| − | Otherwise, you might not be able to save the file, or a copy of it might be saved
| |
| − | into a different location without your knowledge.

| − | === Capture dir and 'config' command ===
| |
| − | * A few paths are provided here with the assumption that DOSBox is installed in the following path:
| |
| − | | |
| − | C:\Program Files\DOSBox-0.72
| |
| − | | |
| − | As in the case of the configuration file, extra care should be taken regarding captured video and audio.
| |
| − | The actual directory you should check for captured data is in a location like the following:
| |
| − | | |
| − | C:\Users\ny00123\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\DOSBox-0.72\capture
| |
| − | | |
| − | For DOSBox v0.72, the file manager should take you to the relevant location
| |
| − | if you type the following path:
| |
| − | | |
| − | %LOCALAPPDATA%\VirtualStore\Program Files\DOSBox-0.72\capture
| |
| − | | |
| − | If you're using the internal 'config' command in DOSBox, e.g. "config -writeconf myconf.conf",
| |
| − | it may be found in a similar path as well - just without the "capture" portion.
| |
| − | You might find the new file if you type the following path in the file manager:
| |
| − | | |
| − | %LOCALAPPDATA%\VirtualStore\Program Files\DOSBox-0.72
| |
| − | | |
| − | Although not fully tested, these files may POTENTIALLY be removed at some point!
| |
| − | You should probably move the captured data to another location if you want to keep it.
| |
| − | In order to keep files written by the 'config' command so they keep working in DOSBox,
| |
| − | for now you should copy the written files to the actual
| |
| − | installation path using an Administrator account:
| |
| − | | |
| − | C:\Program Files\DOSBox-0.72
