Does your app specifically require admin permissions to run?

It's a strange problem that I've never come across before :?

well seems the members at msdn has the same bug when they try to run it as admin on windows 8.1 (with a demo app they made)

and yes easy-run need full admin permission


if some want to test this file
run with and run without admin permission
just drop any file on the left panel :)
and let us know


Edit:


i have made this project again in windows 7

and i can drop with and without admin permissions

the only thing we get in windows 7 is a dialog that asked you to allow to drop van explorer into the app.

also the project from windows 8.1 was made does the same thing in windows 7

works fine.

so now we like to know what cause this problem in windows 8.1 and how to fix it because its no fun to work with.
