Installing and Running ST3 as non-admin user

Postby jm11 » Thu Jun 15, 2017 3:23 am

Has SampleTank3 been designed to run as a non-admin user?

I think it is working fine, but wanted to ask the question because I seem to be missing instruments. The files are on the disk but do not appear in the application when I search for them.

Some other applications that I've used; after being installed, require admin rights to run

From what I've seen it appears that SampleTank3 runs fine without admin rights.

SampleTank 3 does not require installing as admin.

If I did install it with admin rights, does it need to run as that admin user?

If I did install it with admin rights (and I'm running as a non-admin user), should I un-install it and install it again without admin rights?

You can leave it as-is as long as you are not having issues.

I am having issues, but don't know if the issues are related to the way ST3 was installed. See questions at viewtopic.php?f=12&t=13759.

Well, what I observed that, syntroniks and AmpliTube 4, during installation it prompt that macontish is not allow and it opt to Admin to install then it works fine, same with the T-racks 5.
