Applies To Product(s): AECOsim Building Designer V8i Version(s): 08.11.09.376 and above Environment: N/A Area: General Subarea: Original Author: Marc Thomas When installing AECOsim Building Designer (ABD) the following options need to be used. Set UAC to 'Never Notify' while installing (this is not the same as turning UAC off which is not recommended!). Reset UAC to your previous setting once the installation is complete. Always install by right-clicking the .exe file and picking 'Run as administrator' to install using elevated permissions. More details about UAC and ABD from the ABD Readme file: "AECOsim Building Designer V8i provides support for Microsoft Window 7 User Access Control (UAC). However, If AECOsim Building Designer V8i needs to coexist on a Microsoft Window 7 Operating System with any previous versions of the building applications it may require the Windows User Access Control (UAC) setting to be set to “Never notify”. Not all previous releases of building applications were certified against Windows 7, therefore they may not support User Account Controls. Please be aware that this is the least secure setting and you open your computer to potential security risks. Please consult the Microsoft Windows 7 documentation for more information concerning User Access Control."
