Post subject: V phone intriguing problem - needs administrator password
Hi all,
I have been trying to access use my V phone on XP and have implemented the following workaround i found elsewhere on the site.
1 Plug in the Vphone
2 Navigate to the removable drive in the explorer window and hit the F10 key and then choose TOOLS and folder options an then choose to view hidden files and folder
3 Now you will see a
Vonage
folder, double click on it and now you will see two files with the
Vonage
logo on them, one of them is "autodown.exe"
4. Highlight "autodown.exe" with you mouse by clicking on it and then drag it to your desktop and it will create and icon for the file
5. Right-click on the new icon and choose properties. Then click on compatablitly and choose to run the program in compatability mode and choose WIN XP SP2 and then click run as administrator on the bottom of that window and then click apply or OK just affirming what you just changed until the window closes
6. Then double click on the new icon and watch the vphone launch
This works but I can not click run as administrator (in step 5) as I am not the administrator on this machine. Hence, everytime I try and start the program up it asks for the administrators password. What does my administrator have to do (or me if I can do something) to allow me to run this program as an administrator (and hence avoid the program asking for the admin password every time I start the
Vonage
program up)?
Thank you.
