VISTA UAC...

[bsaff]

Hi hopers

I'm having a problem with Sage Line 50 (accounting software) on Vista.

Despite the fact that the developers of sage are microsoft gold partners and sage is (supposedly) certified for vista I can't seem to stop UAC flashing up (asking for the admin pword) when I open sage in a users profile. I believe this to be because sage does not specify its publisher in the app metadata, can I add this in or is it a case of waiting for a sage update which will do this?

Any ideas or similar problems please reply

Cheers

Its running Vista Business

We contacted sage and despite the fact that they claim Sage Line 50 is Vista certified they recomended that we downgrade back to XP.

Not only does UAC jump around like a looney when you open the program, but you also cannot enter any dates into the system, create data backups or perform many other standard functions.

So basically sage is not in anyway Vista compatible, and going on the previous catalogue of problems with their software I'd say its likely to be 2-3 years before they sort it out, no joke...

Post back if you have any more info, similar problems.
