Vista - Help! Admin account problem

maleekakashyap · 06-06-2008

I recently installed corel graphics suite 13 on my laptop. There was no problem with the installation.

However when i tried to open corel draw, it says

To start this application for the first time or to activate it, log in using an administrator level account, From then on you can use any user to open this application.

Now the issue is there is just one account in my laptop ..which of course is the admin account which is named different... in control panel under the users section i checked.

Maleeka
Administrator

<--- like that.

I opened in safe mode ...then corel draw opened ...den i switched back to regular mode ... its giving the same message.

Please help

Thanks

So there's something in Regular Mode interfering. I would check with Corel
tech support since it's their product and/or post in their support
newsgroup.

In regular mode try "right-clicking" on the Corel icon and select "run as
administrator".
