# Program won't start
## I ran the program with "run as Administrator" and ...
Don't do that. There's zero reason to run ED Market Connector as
Administrator and it will then be looking for, and storing, settings in
"Administrator"'s registry section **and** will be looking for the game
Journal files inside the Admin account's files, rather than your user's.
*That* would then require you to run the game as Administrator as well,
and there's also **NO** reason to do that.
Just run things as your normal user. The installation of this
application will throw up a UAC prompt as and when it needs extra
privileges for the install. After that all file access in the installation
folder is then read-only (any output is directed within your user's file area,
or other location chosen by you).
## Re-running application does nothing
