E Group: StrataFrame Users Posts: 2.4K, Visits: 23K	Thanks Trent, I'll see what I can do since I don't have access to this customer network and you know how difficult it could be to convince them that any change will not affect their security. Is there any ETA on the next beta release that would include this change? Edhy Rijo

Group: StrataFrame Developers Posts: 6.6K, Visits: 6.9K	I have changed all of the keys to HKEY_CURRENT_USER, but to get around this in the interim, simply grant permissions to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microfour folder in the registry. This is what we generally do to resolve a lot of other issues. In fact, it is a requirment in our medical software and part of our setup and hardware specifications. At any rate, I have changed this but the above will give you work arounds for now. We run all of our sites in a very restricted mode, and this works fine using the above workaround.
