    What error do you get when you change settings and click OK to save them?

    i will try to translate it to english : "During saving settings an error ocured. Saving was not ended correctly. You will find more informations about settings in help."

    In help i can find something like :" Only users with administrator rights can save settings. When user with limited rights try to save settings,the error message appear. To make system changes, try contact system administrator"

    I tried to log in as administrator ,but it didnt work..same message.

    Perhaps permissions for the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ESET\ESET Security key or its subkeys are not set properly for the current user. Check it in safe mode. You can also try uninstalling ESS and installing it in this account.
