New Hybrid can not start because of the False error message about Admin rights
#1
Please, read the 'Infos needed to fix&reproduce bugs,..'-sticky before you post about a problem.

Hi Selur!

The new Windows version of Hybrid is unable start on my PC and Laptops because of the false-error message about "Admin rights". It seems impossible to start this software on Windows.

Maybe it can start only on your own machine with your own Windows profile.

In case your user is in the admin group you need to enable runAsAdmin in the misc.ini.

Dev versions are in the 'experimental'-folder of my GoogleDrive, which is linked on the download page.

It did not help.

Why was this warning so important? 99% of the users use their machine as admins, only some public computers from the past (in universities hotels) were set to non-admin when the OP system loaded.

I can imagine that most of the Hybrid users don't download Hybrid from Selur.de webpage, and don't know anything about this misc.ini file. It makes just troubles rather than solve any problems.

misc.ini content should be:
[General]
runAsAdmin=true
works fine here.

Problem with the admin rights is that if anything goes wrong I spend days mailing&co with users to trace the problem. Since this kept happening more and more I simply lack the time tomorrow deal with it and since folks started to complain that Hybrid should warn the best solution seems to be the current one.

Now it works, but can you integrate this ini file into the installer to avoid similar troubles?
