If this software requires a registration, like entering serial number or activation code, most likely, it uses Windows registry to remember it. When it starts up, it looks for this entry in registry, possibly in the profile of the current user. When you run the program from CF under SYSTEM account, that profile is not available. Therefore, your program exits, because it thinks it is not registered.
Some ideas. (1) In CF Service options (Control Panel -> Services->Properties) check box "Allow service to interact with desktop". Restart CF service. Now, if you are on the server machine, you will be able to see that error message box that bips. (2) Run CF under account that you used to register the program. Will work, but not recommended. (3) It might be possible to re-register it under SYSTEM. For this, use (1) and CFEXECUTE the program in interactive mode (with GUI), while on the server computer. Enter the registration number, as needed. Try if it works. If it does, you can now uncheck the "Interact with desktop" checkbox. It will work in a normal way now. > I think I might have narrowed the cause down to the account > permissions.
