dBpowerAMP only likes administrator type accounts. Make it work properly with user accounts.

Converting audio or CD ripping?

Hehe, yeah, that's kinda important no?

Well, I never tried coverting audio under an user account. But that should be made to work too if it does not.

But ripping CDs works only under administrator.

Select the Advanced CD Ripping option to 'NT/2000 built in (limited)' that will work under non-admin.

Yes, I noticed that too. But shouldn't the software be made to work without administrator permissions by default?

What do you lose by using the limited option?

For most people you will not notice any difference (off the top of my head I cannot remember, but it was quite small).

Well. I'dd sure love to find out! :)

But nevertheless, illustrate should make the program work for a user account type by default.

I just tired using the Music Converter. It needs Administrator too!

Bump?

So, everybody here uses the administrator account?

No, you can use a limited user account. Just give full access to the dMC Install folder, the rip-to folder, and pick "Windows Built-In (Limited)" or "2000/NT Built-In (Limited)" as the CD Communication. You should then be able to rip a CD in your limited account.

Also, note that the thread was referring to dMC the whole time. :)

Actually the latest beta version of dMC will detect a non admin account and auto select that option.

So does this version work correctly with user accounts?

It should, as long as the user account rips to a folder it as permissions for and an Administrator account installs the program.

Converting audio or CD ripping?

Converting, for sure. I don't use the CD ripper. But I object to paying for software that doesn't work; as this doesn't, except in my account.

How to get a refund? Or better, a working version!!!!!!
