Hi ,
Why does GP 2018 work when it is run only by an administrator Click
 
 
If not run by Administrator it gives me the following error : 
 
 
Error : /Configuration system failed to initialize/
 
Is there another way to run GP 2018 without running it through Administrator ?
 
I ask for help from those with experience........................................

    Hello,
    Is there something blocking? Like Anti Virus system?

    One way I have always gotten around this is to make the user a local administrator of the computer. You can set them up manually in Computer Management or use a group policy to do it.
