Can't run unless Admin #40

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Installing
2. Trying to run anything that seems to require a .dll when you're not admin.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I suppose that I would get to see iExecuter, SciTIE or anything other than just 
the command-line ones to work.
Instead I get errors saying that I don't have the .dlls, even though they are 
all installed with everything else just fine.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
v.5.1.4-40 on windows 7 Ultimate x64.

Please provide any additional information below.
No matter where I install it, and no matter how many times I try to get a new 
copy (in case of corrupt download) the problem persists. I am unable to use 
anything except the command line.
If I run the .exes as admin, they work. but it would be nice if you could do 
something that uses the dll's without having to set every exe to be executed as 
admin.

The "user" you used to install LfW, was it a non-admin account? I don't have 
any issues so I am trying to recreate the issue and can not recreate it. A bit 
more details about your system and what makes your "user" not be able to run 
exe's would help.

Background: I have no other reports from other users of Windows 7 on this 
issue. I am sorry, but I maintain at least 30 Windows 7 machines at my work and 
they all work ok.

I only have one account on it, and it's an Admin account (well, as much windows 
will allow it to be, still have to run things "as admin" even though I'm on an 
admin account).
I can run any other exe without any problems at all. I can run games and all 
sorts of stuff without having to run them as admin. So it's only limited to 
LfW, hence the report.

I don't really know what more to tell you than that. Every other program I try 
works without having to run them as admin (except for mumble, that won't start 
at all unless I'm admin).
But it's a standard Win7 Ultimate x64 install, no aero and annoying effects, 
P5QL PRO mobo, Core 2 Quad Q8200, GeForce 9800GT...
Don't really know what more to tell you. I use bbLean 1.17.1 as my shell, but 
with or without it makes no difference.

So, what more do you want to know?

It works fine for me as well on a few different windows 7 (sp1) boxes. I have 
both professional and ultimate installed on these machines.
