I have begun using C1 over the past month. Pretty simple piece of software with one serious problem and a bunch of less serious ones.
The serious one has to do with changes to file security properties. I see it on muyltiple PCs running W7/64. If I import couple of dozen IQ images through C1, some of them become locked. By that I mean they cannot be deleted, renamed, or resaved after changes. The error message is that "You do not have permission to perform this action" or "the file is open in explorer - close the file and try again". That sort of thing. Looking at file ownership in security properties shows that Windows does not have an owner for the file and won't assign it to a current user.
This happens even with C1 no longer running. For example, take a TIF into CS5, manipulate it, then try to save. If it is one of the locked ones, no go. Display the directory in explorer and try to delete the image. Again, no go. I believe C1's databasing function latches on to certain files - no idea why - trashes the ownership properties and makes them unmodifiable. The only solution is a reboot, which appears to reset file properties.
Anyone experienced this?
