1203: Pre-test for Admin on Vista

Post by Owyn »

I have switched to normally NOT Running as Administrator on Vista to get Drag & Drop to work.

Adding or Removing an extension (mmip) requires Admin and can fail with partial changes to MM.

MM should pre-test for Admin (if possible) on Vista before executing the action, and, if not in the correct mode, present a user warning message.
