Non-admin user and Widgets

June 7, 2006 9:46:01 AM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums
I'll try here now with this question, originally posted in DesktopX forum. Non-admin users on the PC are not able to run widgets. They crash when launched. The Widget Manager originally would not run either, I ran the permission string for the folder (the one used for WB5) and then Manager worked, but Widgets still crash. Except for Dtime which will launch without crashing, but shows no digits in the time display, just blank placeholders. Admin users can launch them fine. Anyone know what I am missing? TIA

What about objects?
Will DXbuilder run? Can you create simple objects as a non-admin? Are the antivirus settings the same for admins and non?

Can not create objects, although I admit I am not sure why that matters since I thought Widgets are stand-alone. AV is the same for all. One possible clue, as admin when launching a Widget the first time I get the XP warning that the application is not known and has a checkbox to always ask before running (I normally uncheck this so it will not ask again). I do not get that prompt with the non-admin users.
