| 106502 | 2002-12-16 04:49:00 | I installed Download Accelerator Plus 5.3 on my friend's XP Pro machine and it runs fine when logon to Administrator. But when I logon to a user, error message says " Internal Application Error! " when downloading. Any explanation to this problem? I'm quite new to XP OS, is there any settings which I can change to correct the problem? Thanks |

There should be an option in one of the tabs to "Run as a different user". Make the program run as the administrator, enter the password if there is one, and then apply the properties. Now run the program, and it should work normally. | agent (30) | ||
| 106504 | 2002-12-16 07:55:00 | agent, There isn't any option to "run as a different user" in the Properties of the DAP.exe file. There is, however, to run this file as a different user when I right-click to run the file. |

| 106505 | 2002-12-16 08:33:00 | Sorry, a slip up (I think the option is there when you right click on a shortcut to the program, it certainly is in 2000, and should be in XP). Try it anyway. | agent (30) | ||
| 106506 | 2002-12-16 09:34:00 | Yes, right-click will bring up the "run as" option to execute the program. But there is no option to make it the default. Meaning, I got to run DAP as Administrator manually before I start downloading. Is there any way to execute DAP automatically as Administrator? It is strange that only DAP is behaving like this. Maybe this is a bug in DAP? I've sent DAP an email re this matter but I don't think they will reply me. Cheers |

| 106507 | 2002-12-16 22:28:00 | I just got a reply from DAP (Speedbit): *** Please perform the following: 1. Allow the user account permission to C:\Program Files\DAP (or to any other directory it is installed to). 2. Allow the user account permission to the "Default download directory" and to the "Temporary directory" (As specified in the "General" configuration of DAP). 3. Allow the user account in the registry to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SpeedBit. (Use the regedt32 to enter the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SpeedBit key, once you click the SpeedBit key, get into the "Security" menu and "Permissions", there you will be able to allow user accounts to this registry key). *** I've made the above changes and DAP is working fine. It is however, recommended to make a "restore point" before making those changes. DAP's helpdesk is much better than I expected. Good on you, Speedbit! |
