installed program requires admin rights in order to run

Hi,

the installation of my applicatiion with InstalShield Limited was no problem. Everything fine.
But when I wanted to run my application it "crashed" with some message about authorization.
I then changed to the exe. file in the files directory and started my application with admin rights and everything was fine.

Is there any setting in InstallShield which could be the cause of this authorization error?

Best regards,

Meanwhile I found out what I did wrong. I told InstallShield to copy a directory into the program directory and then my application tried to change this directory.
That only works with admin rights. So now I copy this directory into appdata, a better place for it.
