I just went through the whole thing your now doing...
1) The other fellows are right, put it another folder (like C / games / Ubi / IL2 1946..
2) I set the exe to, run in 32 bit mode. Do this by right clicking the exe file and click the "compatibility" tab, ect...
3) I also had trouble changing my config file (everytime I changed something it would revert back to original settings when I started the game), so I found it impossible to run in "perfect" mode. To fix this I right clicked on the Il2 file and un-clicked "read-only" (for everything in the file too)... BUT more importantly I had to set "full control" for System, "me", "me & administrator", and any and all users... I went through every level of "permissions" and set the security setting to "full control" everywhere I could...THIS seemed to fix the problem (at last).
I'm not saying you will have these problems...but you could. If you find that Vista is giving you problems like these and I have not made myself "clear"...just ask.
