  1. Have to right-click to get installers to run


    I have a thread in this forum,

    APC PowerChute Startup Problems

    which is not getting any responses; thus this new thread with a title that perhaps will get me some support: In trying to fix the problem in my other thread, I have found that in order to run program installers, I have to right-click on them and choose to run as administrator. There is only one Windows profile, so the user is always the administrator.

    This problem only started a day or two ago. Perhaps is was caused by running the usual DISM.exe steps to find and fix problems, as I suspect is only appeared after I had done that--but I don't know for certain. Any way, as always, help would certainly be appreciated.

    :)

    Insurgency wont install and run for me....

    I have played and have fully updated CS and Half life 2....
    I am using the newest client and installed the SDK.

    I am completely blown away, if i click the desktop icon it starts the sdk and then closes, and it doesn't show up in my game list...

    First mod attempt install here, followed the directions step by step on the mods website...

    Any ideas?

    Install Diablo 3 on Linux

    Just install PlayOnLinux? Why did they make step 2 and 3 of this "tutorial"?

    Anyway, looking at the supported software list for PlayOnLinux, D3 is a step in the right direction. Lack of gaming is a factor for a lot of people when deciding on an OS, if more recent games get ported it may help migrate them to their preferred choice.
