[BUG] Remove admin previlege requirement

Open RagnaWay opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

Describe the bug The patch is applying without errors, but it is not saving the user's login on the client. It only saves when I run the client in admin mode. Tested in 2021-01-07aRagexeRE

Screenshots typing the username and password and enter. image when I go back to the username and password screen image

It is only memorized if you run the client in administrator mode.

I believe this is coming because of registry permission issues. The checkbox status as well as the username are both saved to registry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE. Without admin access, I believe you won't be able to set the value there.

You can try using it with HKLM to HKCU patch but I got the setup loop issue with it. Maybe the result would be different for you.

Actually with HKLM to HKCU there is a loop problem with setup.exe, it seems that the solution is not to use this patch.

The issue with the setup loop is straight forward (atleast it looks that way).

Setup.exe only modifies keys under HKLM, while the client looks for them in HKCU with the patch applied. So the client keeps launching the setup to make us save the settings.
