Visual Studio 2010 with admin privileges or crash
Hi,
yesterday I installed Installshield LE (win 7 64bit) and created my first setup-project. To successfully download the SetupPrerequisite dotnetfx35.exe I had to start Visual Studio 2010 Pro with admin rights. I don't know why this was necessary - I am admin on my developer machine.
The creation of the setup worked fine and the installation file works like expected.
Now, when I start Visual Studio as admin, I have no problems.
If I start Visual Studio without admin rights, I can edit code. I'm able to open forms in design view, but when I click on a form or any control on the form, Visual Studio crashes immediately.
Other software projects without Installshield setup-project do not crash.
Is there anybody who knows what's going wrong?
Thanks

addendum:
Now VS crashes also with admin privileges. After deleting the setup-project, there were no more crashes.
What can I do? I want to keep the Installshield setup project.
Thanks
