.NET 4.0 is not supported on XP SP3.

.NET 3.5 is supported on XP.

Soooo either tell him XP isn't supported, Microsoft has ended support for it after all, or recompile your app on .NET 3.5 and hope you don't have to rewrite stuff where you've used .NET 4.0 specific stuff.

I know it's not supported, but can I get it to run without Admin mode?

That depends on what your code is doing. There are various things that require admin priv's to do.

Standard DB CRUD operations.

That's just about useless.

Without knowing more about what you're code is doing, exactly, when it crashes and what you're using, any error messages, ..., there's little anyone can do to help.

Sql Server?

Or is the db a file in a protected folder? Remember that modifying something in the "Program Files" folder requires admin-rights.

SQL is a language; what database (server) are you talking to? SQL Server, MySQL, SQLite, SQL CE, Access?

Yes it is. It's also SQL Server - which is what you asked.

..and where is the *.mdf located? Write a small console-app that only does a select, try that - does it require admin-rights? Writing to local (config?) files? Where are those located?

Errm, .NET 4 is supported[^] on XP SP3.

Whoops! My bad. I ended up looking at the 4.5 page.

XP SP3 IS supported SP2 or before not!

I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

Yeah, I know. I was accidentally looking at the .NET 4.5 page.

And what does happen if a "normal" user tries to start it? Error messages? What do the log files of your app tell you? Any entries in EventViewer?
Which type of .Net Framework 4: "full" or "client profile"?

That stack trace would indicate that the program has successfully managed to start up and the user is interacting it when it breaks - the fact it's hitting the ICommand implementation suggests this.

Kevin Marois13-May-14 9:43

Maybe, the hit on the command could just be the initial binding. But you're right, it seems to get further along than I initially thought.

I don't think so. The stack trace is indicating this is in response to a button click command.
