Program Error

[gtao725]

Hello Community,

Just wondering if anyone has encountered this weird issue I am experiencing with MakeMeAdmin 2.3.0. I have used the program since a year ago on my Azure AD Joined machine without any issues until recently. Now everytime I launch the app, it throws the below errors, however, admin rights are granted. But, the rights will no longer time out automatically after default 10 min, and the MakeMeAdminUI seems to never light up Remove Admin Rights button anymore. The only way I can remove the rights is to manually remove myself from the Administrators group. I have tried the precompiled 2.3.0 binaries as well as the master and issue-16 branch builds as well, removing/reinstalling, remove user.xml and nothing is working. Would anyone know what is causing this weird phenomenon?

See the end of this message for details on invoking just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

[pseymour]

The code that's in master branch now requires .NET 4.8.

[goofie45]

Thank you for this feedback, currently on my workstation, version 4.8.1, would you have a clue?

[pseymour]

It looks like your Allowed Entities registry value is a REG_SZ value.

[goofie45]

that's fine, thank you very much
