Why are my m2p files deleting themselves

[EditSweeet]

Hi,
Can anyone help me with a major! problem i'm having.
After rendering m2p files with canopus mpeg soft encoder and checking that they have worked, I later return to find that they have been reduced to 0kb and can not be played. This has also happened with some AVI reference files, the temp files are reduced to 0kb. This problem is killing me.
I'm running win2k and all my drives are NTFS.

Even after having changed them to read-only?

good idea I'll give that a go, hopfully i can get to them before it happens,
one i just rendered over night reduced to 0kb before i got to it today. ggrrrrrr.

Maybe you'll having trouble setting the file mode during a program running on this file.Use filemon for checking, which program hogs your files. Should be found here:
