Using Xpression without a normal (non-administrator) windows account

  • 1.  Using Xpression without a normal (non-administrator) windows account

    How can I get Xpression to work with a standard windows user account that does not have administrator privileges? I am using Xpression Studio in a University Environment with lots of students who will have access to the computer long after I go home for the day. I want to lock down the Xpression so they don't accidentally install malware or make system changes.

    When I load Xpression with a standard window's user account, the software has a hardware activation error.

    At this time, it's only possible to run XPression as an administrator - as it is required to access (and halt) some components in Windows that is uses (or doesn't use).

    I would recommend running the system as a local administrator to reduce security issues.
