      Thumbnails are created by calling java.exe. We have very few users on Windows Vista. Searching the web, I see that Vista does not allow read/write access to files located at the root of the system disk. I'll add a new feature so users can set a working directory.



      Lotus Notes 8 includes a modern version of Java. This will make it much easier to create Thumbnails.
