| Summary | 0008943: MM continually prompts for elevation on Standard user account / uses admin settings db (regression) | ||||
| Description | User reported the following regression in MM 4.0.2 (vs 4.0). When MM is installed as Admin, and then runs MM as standard user, it keeps forcing the user to elevate, each time MM is run (via the stardard user account). When running MM as standard user, the DB that is shown is that of the admin account (iirc, MM 4.0 uses separate settings/DB for Admin vs individual users)! Note: Users/<standarduser>/Appdata/Local/MediaMonkey isn't created Users/<standarduser>/Appdata/MediaMonkey/MediaMonkey is empty | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | 1 Remove all instances of MM / previous configurations (this is important-the bug didn't occur when this wasn't done, although I suspect that it would occur in some upgrade scenarios) 2 Login to account with admin privileges, and install MM. Do Not Run MM after install. 3 Switch to user with Standard account privileges and run MM --> elevation prompt 4 Close MM 5 Restart MM --> elevation prompt Step 4/5 will occur ad infinitum | ||||

|
As discussed, this will be fixed by not starting MM elevated _ever_ and using an external object to handle the stuff needed to be done in elevated mode. |
