hi,

i was able to download visual studio 2005 on windows vista home premium now when i try to open it after choosing the environment it says Administrator permissions are recommended for running visual studio 2005 SP1

Can anyone tell me how to make it work

todd

So it installed correctly then, good.

To run VS, right click the shortcut and select 'Run as Administrator'
I believe that's one of the options.

You're almost there

i checked on google and it says TURN OFF UAC

now i am stuck i dont know how to turn it off
any ideas

todd

As far as I know VS will run once you right click its shortcut and Select "Run as Administrator"

Did running it like this work for you?

Now if you'd like to turn off UAC (User Account Control),
The following article will show you how --> Click Here to see Article

lewy,

todd

On this laptop, you are a member of the admin group, right?

lewy,

how do u know if u are a member

thanks for all ur help

todd

I run VS 2005 and now VS 2008 under Vista at work.
We have Windows Vista Business

We don't turn off UAC, and VS runs just fine.
The only nuissance is that message that nags you about this program trying to run.

I have XP at home, so I couldn't help you set up as member of the admin group
until Monday.

We installed Vista about three months ago and haven't had much time to
tinker with user groups/settings in any way.
