Hi,
I'm running version 1.5.2, just upgraded recently. I'm having some trouble with the white and black list in TeaTimer. I have three users set up on my PC (XP SP2), one is an admin and the other two are limited users.
I haven't been able to exactly figure out the steps that lead to the problem but basically when I try to add a registry change to the white or black list it seems to work OK. I can check the file RegKeyWhite and the entries are in there.
However, sometimes when I log in as a different user the entries in the settings are blank. The file still contains the expected things but they haven't been read from the file by TeaTimer. Then, if I try to add something new to the white list it will overwrite all the entries that were in the file.
If I don't add new entries and then I log back in as the original user, they can still read those entries from the file. It works something like if Admin makes the changes it works OK, then it will work OK for the other users too unless they make a change to it and then it will stop working for everyone except that limited user. Other users can make changes but that breaks it for all the other users until the Admin makes some changes again.
It's a bit confusing, I think it's a permissions thing. The permissions on the Spybot folder in ApplicationData has Full Control for Everyone but still when TeaTimer runs it appears to add Modify permissions for Users?
Any ideas? I'm all out.
