[PD] run pd as admin under vista (was: help)

[mrz]

hello,
when pd works in safe mode, I guess your pd runs with admin rights.
so try to run pd with right-click --> run as administrator. When pd works
now, you can turn off
this security lock completely:

note here, that vista updates allways change your user settings again, so i
guess your pd runs not anymore since a genius vista update..

cheers
