Run Pelles C IDE without admin rights
« on: February 15, 2013, 03:01:12 PM »
Hi.

When Pelles C IDE starts, poide.exe (or poide64.exe) needs admin privileges. How can I use it without admin rights?
And why does it need to be Run as Administrator?

Thanks!

PS. I've started to use Pelles C at school with my students, and I think it's great for education. There is excellent balance between power and simplicity. And content of help system is really nice.

I use poide's as normal user in Windows 2000, WindowsXP, Windows 7, Windows 8 and Wine from Program Files or from private folder PellesC7.
Have you some problem with UAC settings ?
May the source be with you

Hi, timovjl, thank you for quick reply.

Well... if everything should be ok, I think there is something strange with my system. I'll do some experiments in a couple of days.

By the way, have you tried x64 Pelles C with x64 wine?

poide64.exe doesn't work, 'Unable to load resource DLL (RSRCnnnn.DLL)'
ubuntu 12.04 x64

EDIT:
If you change at rsrc0009.dll bytes at offset 84h to 64h and at offset 85h to 86h you can open poide64.exe.
But then for example you can't save files in editor, it destroys that file.

You may be able to get around this with a one time change...
 
Log in with admin priveledges...
Locate the POIDE executable (usually in c:\program files\pellesc\bin) ...
Right click on it, select properties then under Compatibility check the "Run as Administrator" box.
Click "Apply changes to all users" then OK.
 
It should not trigger the UAC after that.

I am also facing the same problem. I have done according to what you have said CommonTater, but when I want to start pelles C, Windows 7 asks me whether I should allow this program ( Pelles C ) to make any changes to my computer ? Can you help me a bit more to make this not appear ?

I got this problem too, don't let even force it to run as a normal user on my system (windows 7):
Code: [Select]
C:\Program Files\PellesC\Bin>RUNAS /thrustlevel:0X20000 poide64.exe
RUNAS-FEHLER: poide64.exe kann nicht ausgeführt werden
740: Der angeforderte Vorgang erfordert erhöhte Rechte.

Even gave me (the user of course) full access to the directory and ownership.

Please help, I can't use it as an administrator, because then I won't have access to my network volumes (business enviroment).

Have you tried running it from an USB stick as the portable version?
