I'm a new user wanting to try out Log4OM V2. I downloaded, unzipped and installed version 2.24.0.0. I run Windows 11 as an ordinary user, so user account control prompted me to enter the administrator password as is typical, and the installation completed without incident. I closed the installer, then launched the program from the desktop icon on my normal user account. After launch, it hung while loading. I scrolled through the message box and saw errors at the end, so I captured the following screen shot:

Since the errors involved missing files, I closed out of the program and re-ran it with administrative privileges. Sure enough, it loaded without issue and brought me to the initial configuration setting dialog.
So my questions are... am I doing something wrong, or does Log4OM V2 require administrative permissions at runtime? If the latter, are there any plans to change this? Is there a workaround, can I manually copy files to an alternate location within my user directory where the program can access them without elevated privileges? Running Windows as an ordinary user is best practice, elevating my user profile is something I'm reluctant to do.
Thx & 73,
