SubjectCannot save fix.dat file... Reply to this message

I am having problems saving a fix.dat file. I'm running v3.40c of clrMAME. I have all my rom paths, sample paths, and add paths defined (and my dat file loaded). I perform the scan, then attempt the Save->Fix-Datfile. I am prompted with the "Save as" window and enter a filename. I click the Save button and the window disappears. No file is saved.

I read an earlier post about deleting the cmpro.ini file. I've deleted that, as well as contents of clrMAME cache, fastscans, logs, scans, settings, and temp folder. I rebooted and launched clrMAME, checked my settings and scanned . Went to save the fix datfile but no file was saved again.

The strange thing is I had this work 2 days ago. I did this a couple of times and saved just fine. I was prompted for a filename and the file was saved. Now, no prompting of filename after the "Save as" window.

I even disabled my virus scanner just in case that was the culprit (alas, it was not).

Any ideas on this one? I suppose my next step would be to uninstall and reinstall, but I want to run this by everybody first.
