Re: End of the line

Rather than tag on a totally unrelated question to the end, I recommend
using Compose in your e-mail client to start a new topic. This makes it
easier for people searching topics online.

If you are talking about operating system user rights, try changing
the save directory to your own user space, such as your Documents
or Music folder.  If you want to use these files outside Audacity, use
File > Export.
