Vista Program Permissions

We installed an application on a Vista Enterprise machine. When the person that installed it is logged on, he can run the program by clicking the .exe, but a service that calls the program fails, and displays a message that says Run-time Error 429 ActiveX component cannot create object. If anyone else is logged on and runs the program by clicking the .exe, they get this same error. I think that the object in question is NTSVC.ocx, but can't be sure.

I have not come up with anything in regards to this. UAC is turned off on this machine. If you right click, select properties, the privilege level checkbox is unavailable - even when the original installer is logged in.

I don't know what else to do - can anyone assist? Thanks!

After spending a few days researching this, I uninstalled the program and re-installed, running the setup as administrator. This had the same result. The program runs perfectly for the person who installed it - an admin on the box. When another person tries - also an admin, it results in the same error as explained above. Running the progrsam as admin, or in compatibility mode does not make a difference. The installer simply clicks on the .exe and it runs perfectly.

Everything I have read regarding Vista progrsam errors focuses on the UAC, or the VB runtime not being installed, ar the program needing to run with elevated privleges. None of these are the case here - the program runs, but only for the installer. hopefully one of you gurus out there has heard of this and can provide some assistance. Thanks in advance.

Instead of running it as administrator, just double click on the setup and install it.
Also confirm that install for all users is checked while installing.

keep us informed :)

Delphin,

The install program was created in-house - where is the option install for all users located?

Thanks...

While installing some softwares it will give two options, as

OK - will give this a try. I'm also looking at my installshield program to see how it sets the ALLUSER property.

Thanks for the feedback.
