Can't start GiD as administrator

Post by LinuxMark22 »

Hey, whenever I try to start GiD as administrator - nothing happens. Literally nothing, the process shows up for a second and closes a one second after. I'm using Windows 8 with all recent patches. Other programs work well with admin rights. Anyone knows how to fix that? Thanks in advance.

We never experienced this problem. Which GiD version?

I am able to start it 'as administrator' in Windows 10
In fact with older GiD versions was necessary to start GiD once 'as administrator' to be able to save the password in the scripts\TemporalVariables file.

On the other hand if you are able to start without special privileges, why to you want to start it with administrator privileges?
