Hello,

If you needed anything below to install beta, it means that you did NOT run FULL setup
from http://www.amibroker.com/bin/AmiBroker520.exe
Running full setup (NOT upgrade) is required. If you ran full setup, you would not get those problems.

Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko

        Actually you are not a "real administrator"

        hmmm but I am in Administrator Mode I believe.  The
        ab5296beta file is downloaded in the "Downloads" area of the
        Administration. And I am logged in as the Adminstrator.  I
        can not find much on the net about this problem.
        Thanks, Ed

            This is the BIG issue introduced with Vista.

            Either turn off User Account Control, or run the program
            as Administrator.

            I think this feature was in XP Pro, but turned off by
            default, in Vista, it was turned on by default, hence the
            shock to new users.

            Go to [Control Panel]>[User Account] and turn off User
            Account Control. Albeit, some rogue program could execute
            an exe file without your authorization. BUT if you turn
            that off, you are now more in an XP world.

            Otherwise, and maybe the safer mode, is to execute the
            program in Administrator mode, which in effect YOU are,
            as this is a PC at home, and not in a public office
            environment.

            Do look at Total Commander as an Explorer replacement,
            and check the boxes under properties to [X] Run as Admin....

            Your choice.

            All 32 bit applications do go by default to the <x86>
            program folder on a 64 bit system.

            Comments?
