Many users have reported problems using the RIM BlackBerry MDS

And Email simulator on Windows Vista OS so

here is a quick fix on how to solve it. One way to fix it is to change the permissions of the directory

C:\Program Files\Research In Motion\BlackBerry Email and

MDS Services Simulators 4.1.2\MDS so that MDS can write data to

this directory and replace !BMDS_CLASSPATH!;!BMDS_CLASSPATH2! with

%BMDS_CLASSPATH%;%BMDS_CLASSPATH2% in the file run.bat

which can enable the MDS service to run on Windows Vista.

But for users who don't want the go through all this trouble there is an easy way to run BlackBerry MDS

and Email simulator on Windows Vista.

Just install the BlackBerry MDS and Email simulator to the

C:\Research in Motion\... directory or any other

directory outside the Program Files and you will be able to run MDS

and Email without any problems on Windows Vista.

Just remember to allow the program through the Windows Firewall.
