Process Lasso v3.99.17 beta - fixes install error message on non-English Windows

Posted on 15:50 by Unknown
As I clean up the beta and prepare it for final, the fixes come. One of the most important in this build is a fix to the new Task Scheduler integration of Vista and Windows 7. This allows Process Lasso to start at user login on the PC with highest rights and no UAC prompts. Unfortunately, non-English Windows users reported trouble from the start, with multiple reports of the error. I have now fixed this problem for those non-English users. The issue was simply that the 'Administrators' user group was not named 'Administrators', because it isn't English ;). MSDN had suggested the code I used, so I was a bit disappointed even Microsoft didn't consider this scenario.

Oh well, all is good now - I hope. If problems continue, report them and I'll fix them immediately.

Thank you to those who reported this anomaly in the v3.99 beta series.
