    Netspeedmonitor works for admin, not for user


    Netspeedmonitor puts a simple U/D speed display on the taskbar. It has worked for years on Win 10 and Linux.
    I run Win 10 version 20H2 build 19042.844 on an HP desktop with 4 GB memory and an amd64 dual core running at 2 GHz

    The app version is "netspeedmonitor_2_5_4_0_x64_setup.msi". This is the latest version at this time and has been running for many months. However, now it only runs for the Administrator account. It does not run under my user account. I have done everything suggested on the web: opened up a firewall, installed in compatibility mode, put an executable in the startup folder. But still no luck.

    I am using Firefox V86.0 64 bit as a browser.

    :)

    Many times, programs allow you the option of "installing for all users" during install?


    I just went to the Netspeed Monitor website, and the site itself is infected.
    I then checked the softpedia website, and in the description it explains, that this program has trouble on Windows 8 and above.
    On cnet.com it doesn't list Windows 10 as compatible with this program.
    On github they are only up to version 1.0.15


    Personally, I use AIDA64 Extreme to monitor my DL/UL rate, and DL/UL amounts.
