I've been trying to edit my hosts file in Windows 7, but I can't seem to do it. It won't let me save it, and when I try to drag it over - it still wont.

How do you do it? Tongue

I can do it - check that you havent got a program that is running it, as that will prevent your access to the file.

See if you can rename the hosts file to hosts.txt, and then copy your one over...

Remember: We do not accept any form of support request over PM, they will be deleted from my PM inbox.

Please submit a support ticket appropriately here.


^^ We do this for the benefit of us, and you - the user - as PM'ed support tickets are impossible to keep track of!

Hmm, now when I do it, it saves it as a .txt file, even though I select "All Files" in notepad.
