What file/registry permissions are required to run MultiSim 7 as a regular user?

I want to be able to run MultiSim 7 as a regular user (since our students obviously do not have administrative permissions/rights).

I can't quite figure out what file and registry permissions are required to be able to do this (despite using Filemon and Regmon).

Look at this knowledgebase: "How do I give a computer user without administrator rights the proper file privilege to run Multisim?"

It is made for version 9 but it should apply for your version 7 as well. Although, I would recommend giving Full Control privileges to 'everyone' on all the EWB installation folder.

Hi,
 
If you are refering to the "failed to update registry" warning message, do this:
 

 

1.  Click Start-->Run

2.  Type "regedt32"

3.  Locate HKEY_Classes_Root/Multisim.Document

4.  On the menu, select Security-->Permission (win 2000), For  XP select Edit-->Permission

5.  Give full control for everyone

6.  Repeat step 3-->5 for:

HKEY_Classes_Root/CLSID/{2D964073-9BC9-11D1-840B-006008AC6551}

 

Regards,
