Installation problems with Windows Server 2003

[EuroFX]

When installing Ninja on Windows Server 2003 for 'All Users' (installation option), it runs fine for the user account doing the installtion, but crashes when running under any other user account.

Anyone had any luck getting around this?

Sorry, the exact installation options are 'Everyone' and 'Just Me'. The problem occurs with the 'Everyone' installation.

To reiterate, the installation appears to run correctly, but Ninja crashes when running under any user apart from the one used to install.

a) Does it work as you reinstall for every user? Or is stuff overwritten, so it only works with the latest user "installed"?
b) what is the exact error message?

I had the same problem on Windows Server 2003 SP1, no Domain. NT6 did not start with a normal user account after installing under an admin account. I provided admin rights to the user and started the setup again (no prior uninstall) with the user account to fix that. I am still able to start NT6 with the normal admin account, so it look’s like that not only the last user is able to use NT6.

Sorry, not sure I follow.
- you only can install NT6 as admin
- as you then try run NT6 as non admin user, NT6 installs the remaining, user- dependent portion. This is expected behaviour
- after that the non-admin user runs NT6 without any admin proviledge

This is true for latest NT6B8

I am not absolutely sure if you can only install as an administrator.

I installed Beta7 as an administrator first and was unable to use it as a user (although I provided read/write access to NT6 program directory). Meanwhile I installedbeta 8 as administrator. When running NT6 bata8 with the user account for the first time it asked for the install file (.msi), but no admin rights are needed for that or running NT6 beta8.
