Try running the file as administrator, that did the trick for me

Interesting...
My user account is an administrator account but not THE administrator account. Heck, I'm not even sure what the administrator account password is becuase I was never prompted during set up. I assume you were doing a runas /user:administrator d3_1_3.exe ? "DigiTIM" wrote: Try running the file as administrator, that did the trick for me "Macaw2000" wrote in message ...

Ahh nevermind. I see the Run As Administrator in the shell option.
