FAH v7 on Vista Problems

[SlowBones]

I've been folding /w v6 in dual-client mode as a service for a while and decided to go for v7. The initial install, performed under non-admin user seemed to go well, but FAH didn't restart on logout/login.

I've tried many variations, but starting manually /w run as administrator (or using the admin ID (not a realistic option)) seem to be the only way to get it working. The rights on executables seem OK for user read/execute, but startup shortcuts (added by me) /w run as admin still get blocked.

I can always go back to v6, but...

YGPM. We're not disinclined. We just have to know about it before we can do anything about it.

To help the next person help you: Did you use the default install directory?

I seem to remember that things went better if you install to C:\FAH or somewhere other than standard place on XP and/or Vista?

I did a default install. From uninstalling, it seems that most data was placed in the admin directory - - even though I installed under a non-admin user.

p.s. Thanks to Harvey for restoring my ID (& keeping an eye on happenings!)
