If I create a standard user and turn on UAC the EO.WebBrowser crashes. How can we workaround this?

We tested this here and it works fine. So you will need to find out exactly what's causing the crash. Do you get any kind of exception?

I have found that this is related to manifest settings.

When using <requestedExecutionLevel level="asInvoker" uiAccess="true"> AND sign it we get crashes and strange behavior. When changing to uiAccess="false" it works.


However, this false setting creates other issues for us so we rather have your tool working with "true" option. Can you find the reason why?

But what error are you getting? How does your application crash? And how do you know the crash is related to our product?

It hangs (maybe crashes later). Here is the combination that makes it hang:

- Using manifest setting: <requestedExecutionLevel level="asInvoker" uiAccess="true">
- Signing it
- UAC is on
- Standard (non admin user)


So, it has to be a standard user where UAC is on running the sample exe and it hangs.


We have emailed you link to sample project so you can see for yourself.

Hi,

We tested your sample here and it works fine.

Where does it hang? You can't just ask us to investigate because your application hangs or crashes. You have to tell us exactly where and how it hangs or crashes and you have to explain why you believe this is related to our product. Only when these initial analysis indicates the issue falls into/originates from our code can we do anything about it.

Thanks!

See the video here: https://www.screencast.com/t/WImd0uK7z5

So, it simply does not show. Only the license warning. As you see there is no specific code behind.

I think when you test you are either not testing as a Standard user (with UAC on) or you are not running from a program files like we do.

Hi,

We tested this and it works fine here. You can run some custom test on your system and see if it reveals something. We will send you detailed instruction through private message on how to run custom test.

Thanks!
