Register access denied

[jkaberg]

Getting the following when running SyncTrayzor as normal user, need to run as Administrator for it to work properly

The message says "Register access denied"

"Registry access is not allowed", says unlocalize.com. It's true, I'm assuming SyncTrayzor can access HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run in order to read/set/clear the key which allows it to start on login. This is usually the case, but apparently not always

I think the most sensible thing to do is probably gracefully degrade SyncTrayzor's functionality here if registry access isn't available - not providing an option in the settings to start/not start on login, etc. Then the user has to rely on the installer to change this setting, which prompts for administrator access.

Sounds good to me :) Good work!

Out of curiosity: if you open regedit.exe and browse to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run, then right-click the Run folder and select Permissions, what permissions does your user have? I'm expecting you to not have "Full Control", but do you have "Read"?

[jkaberg]

Yeah, Read

All your issues should be fixed in v1.0.2. SyncTrayzor should prompt you to download this. Let me know if you have any more issues.

Thanks a bunch! Will test and report back if any issues :-)
