No startup for multi-user #2586

Open memlir opened 5 months ago

memlir commented 5 months ago

I've welcomed the feature to install FC in a Multi user machine, which is fantastic for parents that maintain a separate library for their children.

However, FC won't start on the other users and only does so for the Administrators account.

I have not managed to isolate the issue, but it either wont load at all, or will load but ask for the Administrators password on non-admin users.

FanControl needs an admin user. Your best bet is to leave your session open with FC running.

Alternatively, would it be possible to have it start as a Service instead?

You may create a scheduled task that uses the "SYSTEM" user to start FanControl. This will make it run like a service, but you won't have access to the UI.
