Running as Administrator #51

Closed tboneco closed 11 months ago

tboneco commented 11 months ago

Everything is working fine on my remote PC but when I start ASCOM Remote, I get the warning popup stating "Close ASCOM Remote because it is running as administrator" and Yes/No buttons. However, I have not set anything to do this. Any ideas on how to clear this error? I've removed and reloaded ASCOM Remote twice.

NOTE: if I allow ASCOM to run, leave it in admin mode, the admin warning shows on the main screen of ASCOM Remote but everything seems OK and no issues.

Looks like my UAC was set at the lowest level. I set it to 3rd tick from the bottom and rebooted. I ran ASCOM Remote and got a window asking did I want to allow it to run as admin in order to listen for connections. I selected YES and got a UAC window asking to run SetNetworkPermission as admin. I selected YES. Then ASCOM started OK with no admin warnings. :-)
