Hi,

Recently I had to change a password protected configuration over a couple of computers. So I went to the computer and if has a user logged in I just ask for a minute and tryed to change the configuration of NOD32.

For my surprise there was an registry access error.
If the user is an administrator of the machine everything is ok.

Isn't it supposed NOD32 allow changes in configuration of password protected instalation, even if the user isn't admin? Nod32 runs as system services, so I thought it was allowed.

Hi,
for a non-admin user to be able to change NOD32's settings, you'll need to run nod32kui.exe in an admin account utilizing the system "Run as different user" feature.
